So would ironing do the same thing--set it? How about putting the same fabric medium then on labels that one has made on an ink jet printer? Would that help them to be longer lasting through washings?
Your mug mat is really cool BTW! I'm thinking I should make some sort of candle mat or runner using this method to try. Sounds so fun.

I've also mixed in alittle and used with acrylic paints to paint on sweatshirts to help set the colors. On them we then ironed after it was dry as well.
Like Bonni said I even used this medium to paint a friends floral sofa when she wanted to add more color to it. The medium helped the paint absorb and made it alittle softer feel than if we had just used acrylic paint.
It can be purchase anywhere you find acrylic craft paints and is found in with the colors in the same size type of bottle as the paints. It is not very expensive and last a long time since you don't need to use much.
