Regular acrylic paint needs a textile medium mixed into it when used on fabric but after it drys (drys very quickly) you can wash the heck out of it, but you do not need to heat set it. Some fabric paints recommend heat setting to be permanent. This is different than dye painting. Lots of info in library or web.
