How to Apply Pearl Glitter HTV at Home
- Cut the vinyl: Always flip your design horizontally, and use a glitter-compatible blade setting to cut the thicker material. Weed slowly and carefully.
- Prepare the garment: Place it on a heat-resistant flat surface. Pre-press for a few seconds to prepare the fabric for transfer.
- Apply heat: Set the correct temperature and pressure, and press for the manufacturer’s recommended time.
- Peel the carrier sheet: Allow to cool slightly and remove backing sheet as appropriate. Re-press with a cover sheet if needed for a strong finish.
Care instructions: wash garments inside-out, avoid high tumble dryer heat, and keep the surface protected during care.
Choosing the Right Pearl Glitter Film
Consider the project type, desired contrast, and design size. Pearl glitter is ideal for bold shapes and text. Make sure to source from a trusted supplier to ensure you get materials that perform well across batches.
