Applying Pearl Glitter HTV: A Step-by-Step Guide
- Prepare and cut your design: Flip your layout horizontally. Use a cutting depth adjusted for glitter film and weed carefully.
- Set your garment in place: Ensure no folds or moisture remain. Pre-press briefly to prepare the surface.
- Apply heat evenly: Use your chosen heat tool, ensuring you follow the manufacturer’s guidance on temperature and duration.
- Peel the carrier sheet: Let the vinyl rest briefly, then peel as advised—warm or cold depending on the product. A final press with a protective sheet adds durability.
Wash garments inside-out, avoid high heat drying, and do not iron directly over the vinyl to maintain its appearance.
Things to Consider Before You Start
Select film based on fabric type, design scale, and desired contrast. For larger logos or bold elements, pearl glitter performs consistently. Very fine text or detailed images may need adjustment to this slightly thicker film type.
Buying from a dedicated HTV retailer ensures you receive vinyl that works properly every time.
