Applying Pearl Glitter HTV: A Step-by-Step Guide

- Set your garment in place: Ensure no folds or moisture remain. Pre-press briefly to remove creases and damp.
- Apply heat evenly: Use a heat press or iron, ensuring you follow the manufacturer’s guidance on temperature and duration.
- Peel the carrier sheet: Let the vinyl rest briefly, then peel as advised—based on brand instructions. A final press with a protective sheet adds durability.
Wash garments inside-out, avoid high heat drying, and do not iron directly over the vinyl to maintain its appearance.
