Iron-on Flock is an amazing heat transfer vinyl that gives your project the look and feel of a rich, soft velvet. This particular vinyl product can be adhered to many fabrics including those with stretch characteristics like Lycra and Spandex. It has a very luxurious and long-lasting feel, and comes in many beautiful colors.
Like most iron-on vinyl, Iron-on Flock must be cut in reverse. To do this, reverse (flip) your design in the digital cutting software. Place the glossy side down on the mat, and cut on the dull side.
Cutting Iron-on Flock requires a thick materials (60°, blue cap) blade and a high pressure setting. Multiple passes will likely be required. Make test cuts to ensure proper settings for blade exposure, speed and force.
Iron-on Flock should be applied with a heat setting of 320-340° Fahrenheit for 10-15 seconds, using medium to firm pressure. Use a Teflon sheet to prevent damage to the design. The glossy carrier sheet should be peeled off when the vinyl is cooled. If the vinyl starts to come off with the carrier, simply increase pressure and reapply heat.
Unlike other heat transfer products, Iron-on Flock finished products can be washed and dried at medium temperatures.
