Instructions for Safe Use
Use Unicorn SPiT® as a paint, gel or stain on most any material. Create masterpieces on wood, glass, metal, fabric, pottery, concrete, laminate, wicker and most other substrates.
GENERAL DIRECTIONS:
SHAKE WELL and test small area before use. Can be applied with a brush, foam pad, or your hands! Dry time depends upon thickness of the application. Dry time is approximately 30-60 minutes (depending on material, humidity and temperature) or until a chalky finish appears. Unicorn SPiT dries quickly. Use a spray bottle of water to keep product from drying out and to easily manipulate. Once dry, use FAMOWOOD GLAZE COAT or other non-waterbased coatings to protect add gloss and dimension.
Laminate use: Sand the surface with 220 sand paper after cleaning, then dust well before applying
Glass: For best results, mix Unicorn SPiT with a WATER-BASED decoupage before applying to glass. For a solid/non-transparent color, use a 1:1 ratio of Unicorn SPiT /decoupage. For more transparent color (stained-glass style) results, use 1-part Unicorn SPiT to 4-parts decoupage. Apply mixture directly to glass and let cure completely. To add durability to the exterior of regularly handled items, spray a light, NON-WATER BASED clear coat over project and let dry.
Fabric use:
Stamping method: Use Unicorn SPiT full strength for “stamping” (creating design on a separate surface and then “stamping” it on to a fabric project). Then, use a water bottle and your hand or brush to blend.
Direct to fabric projects: Mix Unicorn SPiT with 3-7 parts water in a spray bottle or cup and brush it on, drip it on or spray it on.
Protecting your finished project: Use a NON-WATERBASED product intended for waterproofing fabric after Unicorn SPiT has completely dried.
Washing: Fabric will retain much of the Unicorn SPiT color if treated before washing (see various methods below)*. For best results, wash in cold water by hand (with very little laundry detergent). Rinse with cold water. Various methods to increase the colorfastness of the Unicorn SPiT before washing are as follows:
- Fabric Medium: Mix a Fabric Medium with Unicorn SPiT according to instructions on the Fabric Medium bottle.
- Allure® Dimensional Design Adhesive Paint: Mix Unicorn SPiT with Allure Gloss (Shiny Clear) in a 1:1 ratio. Dry flat 5 hours. Washable after 72 hours.
- Non-waterbased fabric protectant: Let Unicorn SPiT dry. Apply protectant. Allow to dry as indicated on product. Let set for 24 hours before washing.
- Hair Dryer: Let Unicorn SPiT dry. Use hottest blow dryer setting to heat fabric until fabric is hot. Allow to cool back down to room temperature. Let set for 24 hours before washing.
- Iron: Let Unicorn SPiT dry. Put iron on hottest setting (without moisture). Lay wax paper over fabric. Iron front and back of fabric until hot. Allow to cool back down to room temperature. Let set for 24 hours before washing.
- Vinegar: Put fabric with dried Unicorn SPiT design in cold water/vinegar at a 1:1 ratio mix. Let set in vinegar for 24 hours. Rinse with cold water and a very small amount of laundry detergent immediately after removing from water/vinegar solution. Lay flat to dry.
- Clothes dryer: Put fabric with dried Unicorn SPiT design in dryer for 1 hour on hottest setting. Remove and allow to cool to room temperature. Let set for 24 hours before washing.
*Zia is not a colorfast color. Use other colors if project will be exposed to moisture.
NOTE: If a more washed-out look is desired: Let set for 24 hours before washing. Machine wash in gentle cycle with cold water. Machine dry if desired.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE AS A PAINT, HEAVY GLAZE, or ANTIQUING/DRY BRUSHING ON WOOD, GLASS, METAL, FABRIC, POTTERY, WICKER, CONCRETE AND LAMINATE:
SHAKE BEFORE USING.
Use Unicorn SPiT right out of the bottle for a paint application or dilute it up to 10% with water for antiquing or dry brushing. Diluting Unicorn SPiT with water allows you to control the opaqueness. For antiquing or dry brushing, add 10 parts Unicorn SPiT in a re-sealable container to be diluted with water. Test the dilution on a small, dry, clean sample piece of the same substrate as your project, gradually adding up to 1 part water until the desired effect is achieved.
Apply the diluted Unicorn SPiT to the surface once it is completely void of all oil, sealer, dirt, grime, paint, stain, or anything that may inhibit the product from contacting the bare surface.
Continue to add or blend multiple colors to the surface in separate areas creating designs to achieve the desired look.
Allow to dry. Dry time is approximately 30-60 minutes (depending on material, humidity and temperature) or until a chalky finish appears.
After drying, lightly buff the surface with a fine grain sandpaper (120-220 grit) or extra-fine steel wool (following the grain) to remove any excess or clumps.
Dust off thoroughly.
Seal with FAMOWOOD GLAZE COAT or most any oil-based coating/sealer. For better protection and a higher gloss, repeat coats of sealer as indicated on the product’s instructions. High gloss sealers will help achieve a three dimensional look.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE AS A LIGHT GLAZE, WHITE WASH OR ANTIQUING AGENT:
SHAKE BEFORE USING
Dilute Unicorn SPiT up to 30% with water to make a light glaze, white wash or antiquing agent. Diluting Unicorn SPiT with water allows you to control the opaqueness. Add 10 parts Unicorn Spit in a re-sealable container to be diluted with water. Test the dilution on a small, dry, clean sample piece of the same substrate as your project, gradually adding up to 3 parts water until the desired effect is achieved.
Apply the diluted Unicorn SPiT to the surface once it is completely void of all oil, dirt, grime, paint, stain, or anything that may inhibit the product from making contact with the surface to antique, age, paint, highlight or lowlight.
Continue to add or blend multiple colors to the surface in separate areas creating designs to achieve the desired look.
Once dry, use a soft (dry or damp) cloth to polish away Unicorn SPiT until your desired effect has been achieved.
Apply to unsealed chalk or mineral style paint to create custom color highlighting and lowlighting before sealing.
Allow to dry. Dry time is approximately 30-60 minutes (depending on material, humidity and temperature) or until a chalky finish appears.
Seal with FAMOWOOD GLAZE COAT or most any oil-based coating/sealer. For better protection and a higher gloss, repeat coats of sealer as indicated on the product’s instructions. High Gloss Sealers will help achieve a three dimensional look.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE AS A STAIN OR DYE:
SHAKE BEFORE USING.
Dilute Unicorn SPiT up to 50% with water to make stain. Diluting Unicorn SPiT with water allows you to control the opaqueness and absorption into the porous surface. Add 10 parts Unicorn Spit in a re-sealable container to be diluted with water. Test the dilution on a small, dry, clean and bare sample piece of the same substrate as your project, gradually adding up to 5 parts water until the desired effect is achieved.
Apply the diluted Unicorn SPiT to the bare surface once it is completely void of all oil, sealer, dirt, grime, paint, stain, or anything that may inhibit the product from making contacting with the bare porous surface.
Continue to add or blend multiple colors to the surface in separate areas creating designs to achieve the desired look.
Allow to dry. Dry time is approximately 30-60 minutes (depending on material, humidity and temperature) or until a chalky finish appears.
After drying, lightly buff the surface with a fine grade sand paper (120-220 grit) or extra-fine steel wool (following the grain) to remove any excess or clumps.
Dust off thoroughly.
Seal with FAMOWOOD GLAZE COAT or most any oil-based coating/sealer. For better protection and a higher gloss, repeat coats of sealer as indicated on the product instructions. High Gloss Sealers will help achieve a three dimensional look.
TIPS TO CREATE VARIOUS FINISHES: Intermingle chalky paint finishes or metallic spray paint with Unicorn SPiT to achieve unique finishes. Topcoats must be oil-based. Water-based coatings will alter the look of Unicorn SPiT.
CUSTOM COLORS: Most water-based paints (chalk style or mineral based) can be mixed with Unicorn SPiT to create custom colors.
