Of course, like other products, canned clothing dyes have their drawbacks.
-
The need for experience in this case. To properly spray paint, you must first practice on some unnecessary fabric.Moreover, if you paint too slowly, then as a result, you will see smudges on such fabric. If the speed is too high, it will not be possible to achieve uniform application of the paint on the surface of the garment.
-
These paints may not be used on all fabrics., since not every texture is capable of absorbing these components. For example, fabric that is too loose or bulky will not be able to stain from a spray can. The fact is that such products are not capable of absorbing pigments well, because of which the latter will simply spread over the outer part of the clothing.
-
The aerosol version cannot be mixed with others to obtain a specific shade. This means that you will need to buy each color separately. However, this drawback is offset by the fact that modern manufacturers offer a huge range of colors and shades, which allows you to choose the perfect option for any clothing.

In order to achieve uniform dyeing, you need to move your hand at the same speed so that the entire product ultimately turns out to be monochromatic.
If the clothes are stretched during the process of wearing, then they must be pulled on when dyeing. Otherwise, when using such clothes, the paint will begin to crack, and you can see empty stripes with the naked eye.
If you are using a stencil, then you need to make sure that it is as firmly attached to the clothes as possible. It is best to use a pin, tape, or other handy items for this.
Despite the fact that most of the paints on the market are absolutely safe and do not include any harmful components in their composition, it is better to use protective masks during the coloring process in order to prevent the product from entering the respiratory tract.
