Hey /diy/, /mu/ here. I'm making fast, dirty custom band patches for a battle jacket and I need to know the best type/brand of paint to use on denim.

Same people say specific brands, some people just say any acrylic as long as you heat-treat it. Other people complain about acrylic because it feels too stiff, but I don't particularly care as long as it's durable.

Planning for it to be white on black stuff like pic related.

Got any advice?

I'd say buy a few different types of spray cans and try them out. I think some sort of a stencil and spray painting over it is the easiest method.

I don't know how much the stiffness affects anything as, to my understanding, patches are relatively small and tend to be on flatter surfaces. If stiffness is an issue, you could try dyes or bleaches on denim. I think any substance that would get absorbed by the fabric would work but the end result would be less detailed.

If you're looking for it to last, heat treated acrylic is the way to go. Go the extra step and buy Fray Check to go over it once you've heat treated. If you only hand wash it'll last damn near forever.

dont, if you're going to look fucking retarded. unless you're 15, in which case you're cringe.

either way, stop being a degenerate and dress properly

I dont understand what you're asking. Do you want to make patches? Which will cost you literally dollars in materials to start. Or are you trying to paint on a "patch"? That's dumb. I won't even elaborate on that.

Do people wear these things on a regular basis out in public or is it more just for concerts and shows?
>>
There's a surpringly large number of metalheads on Tumblr, I've seen more than a few guides on painting jackets while looking for leatherworking ideas. Don't know what you'd search for though.

Cringe is a verb, not a noun or an adjective. Don't lecture on age and degeneracy when you're spouting ebin rebbit buzzwords on fucking 4chan.
>>1200821
Depends on the local scene, really. Around here you're more likely to see crust punks wearing them in public than metal folks.
