Re: Reflective Coloured HTV?

Post by juggysingh »

Hi, all im currently searching for Reflective HTV that comes in colours other than the typical grey/silver.

There are some great brands I have found, but they don't seem to have any stock available in the uk;
CAD-CUT Hi-Vis Color Reflect - https://www.stahls.com/high-visibility- ... sfer-vinyl
Reflection Decoration - https://specialtymaterials.com/reflection-decoration/


Thanks in advance Juggy!

Hi webtrekker, I have already checked MDP, they dont offer reflective in garment vinyl, the link you sent is for self-adhesive vinyl, but thanks for the suggestion.

MDP do sell some but it's just the silver and glow in the dark.

I think that with the Reflectra you purchase the vinyl colour you require and then press the clear Reflectra over it.

Could be wrong on that though.

They do, do a clear vinyl that does what you have suggested socialgiraffe, but that would mean having to cut out a separate layer first for the coloured base vinyl, then cut out another separate layer for the clear top vinyl to add the reflective aspect.

I would also need to test for potential multi-layering issues too. So ideally if i can find vinyl that is already coloured that would be a much quicker and simpler process, however thank you for your suggestion.

Hi. I realise I sent you the wrong link, but have you had a look around MDP's site? Would the Metallic Flex or one of the other speciality clothing vinyls not do the job? -

Im not sure the MDP Metalics or the like' would reflect as well as the Reflectra Vinyl webtrekker, however I may order some to test out if I dont have any luck with Reflectra, thanks
