I forgot to ask... will this stretch like on ribbed tanks?
The washability test says 10? What does that mean?

Cad Cut Glitter
I am looking for information on the cad cut glitter? There's only 1 review. Is this a thicker material or does it cut just like a regular vinyl? Does it have a sticky carrier? Is it fairly easy to weed?
I'm looking for vinyl for a crown that I am also going to rhinestone on top of... Will this work?
To be honest, I normally order specialty materials and /or sisser and I'm looking for some alternatives.

Hi Tammy- are you looking for Cad-Cut Glitter- which has a smooth surface or Glitter Flake which has more texture and a higher "bling" factor? There are many reviews for the Glitter Flake here: Heat Transfer Material CAD-CUT Glitter Flake | Stahls’ This material does not stretch.
The Cad Cut Glitter is thicker material. It does not have a sticky carrier. It is pretty easy to weed.I forgot to ask... will this stretch like on ribbed tanks?

You would not be able to heat apply anything directly on top of the Glitter, however.
It is not a stretchable material.
Washability of 10 means that after 10 washes you could begin to notice some wear and tear on the vinyl.
The Glitter Flake that was mentioned is a little more stretchable (still not considered a stretch material), and has a wash rating up to 50 washes.
You would not be able to heat apply directly on top of this one either.
Let me know if you have any other questions or need samples.
Well, my current project has a crown and some finer lettering that the customer would like in glitter. She wanted the outline in glitter with a color on top, but I've convinced her to outline in color and glitter on top. I like the sticky carrier, so that concerns me a bit but I've found all glitters so far don't have. I'm a little worried about which one between the 2 glitters (glitter/ glitter flake) would cut / weed the easiest.
The Cad Cut Glitter is a little easier to weed then Glitter Flake, but Glitter Flake is a true blingy glitter vinyl while the Cad Cut Glitter is a flat material with embedded glitter.
More questions- sorry for so many!!
One of my other vendors must carry the exact same material because it even has the same picture of the demo. But- there is a picture included online that appears to have this glitter behind some other glitter (red/white blue). So can the glitter flake be layered? I have someone who wants glitter then a hot pink on top (non glitter).
Also- Do I need to deepen my blade to cut this material since it is thicker or is it better just to increase the pressure like I do cutting sign vinyl vs. heat applied?
An off subject question- what is the best material to cut white on black ? I don't want something as thick and plastic feeling as sisser because I'm having issues with it- but something that will hold up nice, weed well and you can see to weed...
Last question- is there ever free shipping over a certain dollar amount?
I need to get my order in today... so sorry for all of the questions. I have 26 shirts to do in glitter and they need 2 by Saturday.I have 2 other large orders behind this one...

I ordered the cad cut glitter - and love love love it!!!
Thank you for all of the help on here. I'll post my shirts soon in show your work.
They ended up insisting on a jumbo size front/ back and needed to keep cost down. So we used silver with the hot pink fashion film and then glitter for a couple of smaller pieces. It looks great.
