Hi everyone, I'm wanting to find out the name of something. its the things like paint that you put onto material and zap em with a hair drier, and they kinda bubble up a bit and stick onto the material, I had them when I was a kid and thought it'd be fun to do some of it with my kids. but im buggered if i know what they are called. thanks in advance.

Have a look in spotlight, they have fabric paints there so that would prob be your best bet.

yep you can still get them we got a whole heap not too long ago and did some cute skivvies for the girls to liven up their plain winter ones.

Spotlight has them for cheapish, we just got the normal fabric paint for in between and did kinda a few things in the puff-paint so it wasn't overkill.
