FAQ
When properly applied, PVC HTV is highly durable and can last the lifetime of the garment. It is designed to withstand 50 or more wash cycles.
PVC HTV is not recommended for use on loosely knitted sweaters or heat-sensitive fabrics. The high temperatures required for application may damage delicate materials.
While PVC HTV is generally safe, it’s important to ensure that the vinyl meets safety standards for children’s products, such as being free from harmful chemicals like phthalates and lead. If creating items for children, verify that the PVC vinyl you are using is certified for such use or opt for PU vinyl, which is often considered safer for kids’ apparel.
