What Exactly Is Pearl Glitter Vinyl?

Pearl glitter vinyl is applied using heat to bond with fabric. It contains tiny reflective elements that provide a textured appearance that stays wearable.

Works well with a wide range of garment fabrics, it’s widely used for team kits, dance costumes, and custom accessories.

How Pearl Glitter Enhances Your Garments

How a garment reflects light can change how it’s perceived. Pearl glitter vinyl provides a luminous look without the boldness or flashiness of standard glitter films.

Embellish performance outfits or charity T-shirts. Pearl glitter makes names and numbers more visible for both personal and commercial garments.

Mix it with matte or holographic HTV. This film offers branding opportunities for small labels while keeping production practical and cost-effective.

Using a Heat Press or Iron for Best Results

1. Prepare and cut your design: Ensure the artwork is mirrored before cutting. Use a cutting depth adjusted for glitter film and weed carefully.


2. Set your garment in place: Ensure no folds or moisture remain. Pre-press briefly to remove creases and damp.


3. Apply heat evenly: Use your chosen heat tool, ensuring you follow the manufacturer’s guidance on temperature and duration.


4. Peel the carrier sheet: Let the vinyl rest briefly, then peel as advised—warm or cold depending on the product. A final press with a protective sheet adds durability.

Wash garments inside-out, avoid high heat drying, and do not iron directly over the vinyl to maintain its appearance.

Things to Consider Before You Start

Check that your chosen vinyl suits the garment and level of detail. For larger logos or bold elements, pearl glitter performs very well. Very fine text or detailed images may need adjustment to this slightly thicker film type.

Buying from a dedicated HTV retailer ensures accurate colours, strong adhesives, and consistent quality.
