How to Apply Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl to Garments or Fabrics

Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl is a fantastic and eye-catching material that can add a vibrant and reflective touch to garments and fabrics. It is commonly used in the garment decoration industry, especially for creating personalized apparel and accessories that stand out in low-light conditions. Applying Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl is a straightforward process, and in this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to achieve excellent results.

Materials Needed:

  1. Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl
  2. Garment or fabric of your choice
  3. Cutting machine
  4. Heat press
  5. Weeding tool (for removing excess vinyl)

Step 1: Design and Cut Start by designing the artwork or text you want to transfer onto your garment using graphic design software. Once you have your design ready, send it to a cutting machine compatible with Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl. Alternatively, if you don’t have a cutting machine, you can cut the design manually using sharp scissors.

Step 2: Weed the Excess Vinyl Carefully weed (remove) the excess vinyl material from around the design using a weeding tool. This step is essential to ensure that only the desired design remains on the carrier sheet.

Step 3: Preheat the Heat Press or Iron If you’re using a heat press, preheat it to the recommended temperature (usually around 300-320°F or 150-160°C) for Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl. If you’re using a household iron, set it to the highest cotton setting without steam and allow it to preheat.

Step 4: Position the Vinyl on the Garment Place your garment on the heat press or a hard, heat-resistant surface if using an iron. Position the Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl design on the fabric with the carrier sheet facing up. Make sure it is centered and aligned as desired.

Step 5: Apply Heat and Pressure For a heat press, cover the design with a Teflon or silicone sheet to protect it and apply firm pressure for around 10-15 seconds. If using an iron, apply even pressure and hold it over the design for about 15-20 seconds, making sure to cover the entire area.

Step 6: Cool and Peel Allow the vinyl to cool down for a few seconds after applying heat. Once it’s cool to the touch, gently peel off the carrier sheet at a 45-degree angle. If any part of the vinyl starts to lift with the carrier sheet, lay it back down and apply more heat and pressure.

Step 7: Final Touches If necessary, repeat the heating and peeling process to ensure proper adhesion. Once the carrier sheet is removed, your garment is now decorated with the stunning Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl design!

Step 8: Post-Application Care To ensure the longevity of your design, wait at least 24 hours before washing the garment. Turn the garment inside out before washing, use a gentle cycle, and avoid using bleach or harsh detergents. Hang-drying is recommended, but if using a dryer, use a low-heat setting.

In conclusion, applying Rainbow Reflective Heat Transfer Vinyl to garments or fabrics is a creative and enjoyable process. By following these simple steps, you can add a touch of brilliance and uniqueness to your clothing, making them stand out day and night. Enjoy experimenting with this captivating material and unleash your creativity in garment decoration!

Children from the Kindergarten visited the police department

At the end of May this year in the morning, children from the village of Miskovice Kindergarten visited the local District Police of the Czech Republic.

Children and their teachers were welcomed by local police officers, who then accompanied them all along. They first showed the police department, and then showed them the equipment and armaments. At present, the handcuffs, a baton, a reflective vest with the inscription “POLICE” which is made of reflective heat transfer vinyl, and a bulletproof vest with reflective material were fascinated. The children were enthusiastic about the service motor vehicle.

During the meeting, the children learned how and how they knew the police and heard advice on how to safely behave in road traffic, focusing on the correct crossing of the road. At the conclusion of the meeting, the cops answered their inquiring questions.

A letter of thanks to the police:

“Hello,

I would like to thank, on behalf of ourselves and our children, for the demonstration of the work of the police and their equipment. On Friday, 25 May 2018, we went to the local District Police. Jelinek was willing to showcase our children a demonstration and then face a cannonade of inquisitive children’s questions. Everything was great, and the kids were thrilled and richer for the great experience. I believe this was not the last time and we are sending some photos.

Thank you once again for the children from the class “Viselike” kindergarten Miskovice teacher Dana and Lena. “

Children are seen even in the dark

The dark season starts and it brings especially cloudy weather and poor visibility with it. Children are among the weakest road users in road traffic. They are particularly vulnerable if they are not sufficiently “visible” to other road users.

In order to be better seen in rain, fog or dusk, children should wear bright and contrasting clothing. Trade offers – quite practically – even jackets with reflective stripes. For jackets or vests, without incorporating reflectors, reflective heat transfer vinyl can be ironed on later for little money.

Also, a good choice is reflective tapes that can be worn around the wrists and ankles and are quickly put on when needed and find a jacket pocket.

For children who ride their bikes, there are even bicycle helmets that light up. The control of lights and reflectors on the bike, which are frequently used in the dark season, should not be forgotten. Because: Especially with clip-on light after a long summer, in which the lights were not needed, suddenly the battery is empty.

School backpacks also have reflective areas. But if these are “pasted” with stickers, they do not serve road safety.

The classic “blinkers”, attached to a jacket or bag, are often lost. This is what Ulrike Margrave. Rector of the Western House Primary School has stated: “They are tearing away quickly.”

That’s why for the first graders of the school for some years in bright yellow vests from the ADAC hooded. Not only are they pretty glaring and well visible a few meters away from other road users. They also have reflective stripes and look pretty fragrant. The I-males from the Western house also find that. “The West is cool,” the students have stated. Class teacher Cornelia Manley has distributed the luminous vest a few days ago in her class. Almost all of the 20 children have been wearing the reflective vest since then. With traffic safety training at the elementary school, they become the right little traffic detectives. And that’s the way it should be in the best case.
