To Reupholster, Spray Away
By JOYCE WADLER
Published: June 24, 2009
It is always trying when a pet or a friend ruins a beautiful upholstered piece with an unsightly stain. The pet trained, the friend banished, but that does little to fix what is truly important in life: your stuff.*
Now comes a solution: Simply Spray fabric paint.
According to its inventor, David Reizian, the president of Deval Products in Warwick, R.I., the paint can be used to disguise stains or transform anything from sofas to car upholstery to fabric partitions. It is nontoxic and, most important, won't come off on your guests' trousers, even if they deserve it. Mr. Reizian, 43, a onetime rock vocalist who has nonetheless spent his life in the fabric-paint business, knows because he developed it.
'We went to Goodwill and bought a couch,' Mr. Reizian said. 'It was tan, and we painted it bright red. I like bright colors. We paid $50. What I noticed was it would rub off, so we went back to the drawing board. We came up with a formula that stays soft and is durable and it won't rub off, even if it gets wet.'
How does he know?
'We had it in the factory, and I had all my employees sitting on it with white pants,' he said. 'Then we tried a car interior in one of my employees' cars: a black Ultima gray interior that we did black.'
How did he figure out which lucky employee would volunteer a car?
'I went and looked in the parking lot and saw who really needed their upholstery painted,' Mr. Reizian said. 'It was Alaida Zapat. She's our floor manager. It looks great and it doesn't fade in the sun. She's happy with it.'

Make a big splash
Tie-dying is back in a major way, and our value-packed kit lets you make your own fun, funky, whimsical designs without the tub of water, rubber bands and long drying time you'd expect. These special spray paints dry permanently on all types of fabric in under 30 minutes, yet wash off hands and hard surfaces with just soap and water. The paint is nontoxic and nonflamable, so it's safe for kids and adults alike. Just scrunch up the shirt and towel included in the kit and spray. When you undo it you'll have the tie-dye look. Then add designs with the included stencils. After you make the T-shirt and towel, you'll have plenty of paint left to do dozens more projects, such as touching up faded upholstery, pillowcases, lampshades, umbrellas, you name it. Each kit contains an all-cotton T-shirt (your choice of large or extra-large), a 24" x 50" white spa towel, three cans of Simply Spray paint in Dark Pink, Deep Purple and Blue Jay, plus two stencils (heart and star shapes) and easy-to-follow instructions. - Woman's Day - May 31st 2005
