CRYSTAL TRANSFER FILM FOR HOT-FIX CRYSTALS

Draw or print your design, picture or pattern on a plain peace for paper and tape it to a hard flat surface.

Peel your Transfer film and tape the backing base on top of your design. Put the sticky side in a safe place.

Using tweezers place each rhinestone over your design. You can see the finished affect and you can adjust or change crystals at this stage.

Carefully place sticky film over the top and press gently, don’t worry if some move. Pick up the transfer film and your design will be stuck to the film. You will be able to adjust the crystals that have moved or not stuck with your tweezers.

When your design is complete and you are happy with it, place your design which is now on the film, sticky side down onto your fabric.

Preheat your iron to a hot setting without steam, make shore your fabric can take the heat.

Place a preheated iron on the film and let it remain in place for several seconds. Use a PTFE sheet or old clean cotton cloth, to protect your iron and create a uniform heating surface. Move the iron as needed to cover the entire design; making shore the transfer film does not move.

Allow the design to cool then slowly peel off the film. If any rhinestones remain on the film, replace and iron again, until they are all fixed.
