metallic htv
Metallic HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) represents a revolutionary material in the custom apparel and crafting industry, offering a stunning shimmer effect that transforms ordinary garments into eye-catching pieces. This specialized vinyl features a unique composition that combines durable polyurethane with metallic particles, creating a distinctive reflective surface that catches and reflects light beautifully. The material comes with a pressure-sensitive carrier sheet that ensures precise cutting and easy weeding, making it ideal for both beginners and professional crafters. Metallic HTV adheres exceptionally well to a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, polyester, and various blends, through a heat-activated adhesive backing. When applied correctly at temperatures between 305-320°F for 10-15 seconds, it creates a permanent bond that withstands multiple washes without peeling or fading. The material's thickness is carefully calibrated to provide dimensional stability during application while maintaining a comfortable, flexible feel on the finished garment. Available in various metallic shades from classic gold and silver to trendy rose gold and holographic options, this versatile material opens up endless possibilities for creating professional-looking customized clothing, accessories, and home decor items.
