Default Videos for client Hot peel, superGlitz and Spotpro

I was contracted to do 4 videos for Spot98.com for them to use in showing their clients how to apply several of their heat transfers. I asked and was granted permission to share the info with the forum....

Hi Lou,
Thank you for the videos, they are really nice,
How this super stretch feel in hand? Is it as soft as your iron all heat press? And if I am not color blind that was white super stretch, how did you made it, or you got it ready from Spot98? Is that same as plastisol? Thanks,
Eroha

Yep, it is a ready made (or more specifically, made to your order/design) custom plastisol transfer from Spot98.

I saw that a cotton rib shirt was used for the SuperGlitz transfers in the video. That is not recommended, right? I am just looking for all options for rib knits and wanted to make sure that this type would not work well. Did it crack when stretched?

SuperGlitz Transfers are a cold peel and specially formulated. Thick Sparkly Ink spead. The SuperGlitz in the Video works fine 110-115% Stretch.

The SuperGlitz for stretchy Fabrics, SuperGlitz Plus works well on 120-140% Stretch Knits or better, depending on the design.

These are the same type of transfers Major Brands use...so if it's ok for them so far I think they are a good choice when materials are not an option. Great wash durability too in comparison to Glitter Foils for example. They emmulate Direct to shirt well done screen printing.

But yes, glitter transfers in general on the market do crack. Thats why we have spent endless hours in product reseach and development to achieve a more durable and yet glitter vibrant type transfer.

Unfortunally the minimum is 100, due to the set up involved for both.

We have also experimented with 4-color process finished look glitter type transfers. These I really like my self personally. Not cheap though, high volumes required to make it cost effective.
