For optimal transfer, set your heat press to 160°C. Apply the film for 20 seconds with medium pressure. This method guarantees precise and uniform application, achieving high-quality results without compromising the texture of the fabric.
To maintain the brilliance of your creations, it is recommended to wash textiles at a maximum temperature of 60°C. When ironing, always iron inside out to protect the glitter pattern and avoid any degradation.

1. Cutting the Film in Mirror Mode
- Before cutting, set your cutting machine to mirror mode. This step is crucial as the marking will be applied in reverse to ensure it is correctly oriented once transferred onto the textile.
- Use a flock blade suitable for cutting heat transfer vinyl, and precisely adjust the blade depth according to the material's thickness. This ensures a clean cut without damaging the polyester backing layer.
- Ensure the blade settings are optimized for precision, especially for fine details of the design. It is advisable to perform a test cut before starting full production.
2. Weeding
- After cutting, proceed with weeding by removing the excess material around the cut design.
- Employ tools such as a hook or tweezers to weed precisely, making sure only the desired design remains on the polyester backing.
3. Positioning and Transferring the Marking onto the Textile
- Place the textile on the heat press, ensuring the surface is clean.
- Place the design (with the polyester backing still in place) on the desired area of the textile.
- Cover the design with silicone paper to prevent direct contact between the heat press plate and the polyester film.
- Set the heat press to 160°C, apply medium pressure, and press for 20 seconds. The combination of heat, time, and pressure ensures the design adheres well to the textile.
4. Removing the Polyester Backing
- Allow the textile to cool completely before removing the polyester backing.
- Once the textile is cooled, gently peel away the polyester, ensuring that the flex marking remains securely adhered to the textile. Pull the backing slowly at a shallow angle to reduce the risk of detachment.
By following these steps, you will achieve a professional-quality, durable, and well-applied marking on the textile.
- Follow the care instructions specified on the garment: The recommendations for the fabric on which the film has been applied must be adhered to in order to ensure its durability.
- Wait 24 hours before the first wash: This allows the film to properly adhere to the fabric and prevents it from peeling off or deteriorating prematurely.
- Iron only on the reverse side: To protect the transfer and avoid damage from direct heat, it is imperative to iron the garment inside out.
- Storage: The film should be stored in optimal conditions, upright, away from direct light and moisture, for a maximum of one year. Improper storage can alter the film's properties, such as its adhesion or elasticity.
- Washing: The garment can be washed at a maximum temperature of 60°C, and it is recommended to wash it inside out to prevent the transfer from being exposed to friction, which could damage it.
- Do not use harsh products: Detergents containing bleach or other aggressive chemicals can deteriorate the film and affect its durability.
- Tumble drying: Tumble drying is permitted, but it is advisable to check the textile's compatibility with this drying method.
- Dry cleaning: The garment can be dry cleaned without risking damage to the transfer.
These recommendations are essential for ensuring the quality and longevity of the marking on personalized textiles.
