Printable Luminous Flex - Heat transfer film for fabric

 

Description

 

Printable luminous flex is a material used for digital printing designs that are computer cut and heat transferred to fabric.

 

Printable luminous flex gives an excellent glowing effect in the dark with excellent light absorption. Also, this flex allows customers to design in any colour with its excellent colour pigment absorbing ability and the colour will stay on after its application. Glow in the dark lasts for a longer time than any other brands.

 

Printable flex is washable and suitable for dry cleaning and can be used on cotton, mixtures of polyester/cotton and polyester/acrylic or similar textiles. Not suitable for treated and dyed garments.

 

Use solvent or eco solvent inks.
