Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing
I am new here, to this category. I see there are GLITTER Vinyl HEAT transfers.
Are there just plain Glitter vinyls for the plotter? To just stick not for making shirts and stuff?
Thanks!

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Sure, check with some of the larger sign supply companies. Harbor sales, Fellers, Beacon. They all have online catalogs. Some might be metal flake, but should be able to find something close to what you need. Good luck.

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Yes there is ,, but not all glitter is created equal,, some of the glitter has a lot to be desired.

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Absolutely, I have a few different ones that I bought from:
Auto Graphic Films for Vinyl Cutters from Beacon Graphic Systems
The price is surprisingly cheap in my opinion for them. They do sometimes get creases and air bubbles just sitting on the backing liner, but usually they flatten out ok. I found it best to disable my heat settings on my cutter (I use a SP300 which does print and cut).
I believe Avery also offers some glitter style vinyl. I had a sample roll of Avery's stuff and it was great, but the price tag in comparison was a lot more from what I recall.

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Avery Ultra-Metallics from Beacon Graphic Systems
The rose quartz there may fit your need.
Also some more options available from FDC at:
FDC 2100 series Metallics - Beacon Graphic Systems
The cost on both is quite an increase, but if it's for a client, they can decide on how much they want to pay

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Yep I too thought we were talking about heat pressed vinyl
For regular vinyl Ordway sign supply has a large variety of vinyls.

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing Thought I'd give an update. Got some AVERY ULTRA METALLIC vinyl and it came out pretty good. Makes the design so much prettier and girlier!! Was easy to cut and weed. I'd recommend it!

Re: Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing here's a photo of the glitter vinyl. Doesn't show it that well (too sunny out) but they loved it. it was 22.5" wide and I charged $12.
This is a discussion about Glitter Vinyl, is there such a thing that was posted in the Vinyl Signs and Decals section of the forums.
