There is no such thing as ordinary spray paint. Every spray paint has it's particular use.
Acrylic spray paint tends to do very well on fabric.

I think when you say ordinary, you mean acrylic or craft paint. I recently did a few T shirts for children with this craft paint. It was harder to apply. The area painted is stiff. After a few washes, the paint went off from a few places.
So, I realized that while it is okay to paint non-wearable fabrics, it was not a good choice for wearable fabrics.
On the other hand, I have a pillow case painted with fabrics colors that I painted 15 years back, which is still bright and nice.
It would have been nice if craft paint worked since it is cheaper than the fabric paints.

Use fabric paint. Regular spray paint will get hard and crack as the fabric moves

particular! it fairly works large! purely stenciled approximately 20 shirts very final weekend. shrink stencils out of cardboard, and sprayed the shirts. an incredible variety of the overspray will wash out, even in spite of the very undeniable fact that in case you do the stencil sufficiently extensive or block off the part of the shirt to not be sprayed, it is extra powerful. counting on what variety shirts you do, the spray paint will initiate build up on the stencil, so a difficult plastic stencil of a few type, which you will have the skill to bathe off, could artwork appropriate. and ensure you get innovative, spray the actually with one shade, midsection with yet yet another, backside yet yet yet another. the colours can overlap to get a cool result too. i've got have been given washed my shirt 2 situations already and the spray paint format hasn't budged.

No fabric paint works best...spray paint bleeds and becomes brittle and stiff

It would probably be best if you use fabric pain, or fabric marks/gel-pens. I have a gel marker thing that you use on plastic, and then peel off and iron it on any fabric, it works o.k.

i made a stencil and spraypainted directly onto a tshirt ... its been 5 years and the image still looks great, with very little fading.
you can definitely use spraypaint on fabrics, you just need to watch out for overspray

No, it's too porous. And if you spray too heavy, it will stiffen the fabric and eventually flake off.
