acrylic paint + Fabric

So I've been using acrylic paint to pain on my jeans and a few t-shirts, and I was going to go pick up some acrylic sealer, but I didn't see on the bottle anywhere whether it would be ok to use on clothes. My goal is to make it less likely to wash off...Any ideas?

As far as I know acrylic paint can't be washed out clothes.
I always get warned when I start painting with acrylic paint.

use a water-proof paint? i think arcrylics are water-based so they would wash away. i paint warhammer with the citadel acrylics and to make them runnier we use water, and to wash the brush is water so these are water-based.
ask someone in an art store or fabric store if it will work?
