WHAT’S NEW: THEMAGICTOUCH
TheMagicTouch in the UK are pleased to announce
the arrival of a new addition to their existing range of reflectra® foils for garment, textile and accessory decoration...
The new Sensation from TheMagicTouch
BRIGHT IDEA: Using reflectra Sensation is as easy as 1, 2, 3...
I
ntroducing the new “Sensation Plotfoil”, a unique almost transparent film which can be used with all existing plotter/cutters.
After weeding the cut design itʼs simply applied with a traditional heat press to the chosen item.
The new “Sensation” product is also available as a “Sensation Stitchfoil” version compatible with all traditional embroidery machines just like a regular appliqué. Once the foil is embroidered unwanted residue is removed and the “Sensation” is fixed permanently using a heat press.
This innovation with all reflectra® products assists to increase the value of embroidered items while reducing stitch time using a simple outline satin stitch.
The Sensation in both Plotfoil and Stitchfoil format is best described as “opaque translucent” in normal light but is activated giving an illumination effect when exposed to any direct light source or flashes from cameras or smart phones. The effects are stunning and offer massive potential in garment decoration over many markets including fashion, promotional, sportswear, and workwear.
The Sensation Plotfoil once cut and weeded is applied using a traditional heat press for only 15-20 seconds, is clean, simple, and suitable for most textiles including cotton, poly/cotton, mixed fibres, denim, sportswear and performance fabrics. All materials used are ecologically inoffensive and free from PVC, softeners and heavy metals.
All ingredients used meet all the requirements of the Oekotex- norm standards. Sensation, like all existing reflectra® products, is available in sheet format (48 x 32cm).
This unique patented product can also be applied to garments that have been previously decorated offering the ability for additional effects and hidden messages to existing prints and designs. This includes the TTC transfer papers for white and pastel colours, the WoW transfer for dark garments and all existing Flex and Flock products. Traditional screen printed garments and those printed with DTG can also now be enhanced.
The product works equally well with bags, caps and fashion accessories. The new “Sensation” joins an existing portfolio of over 20 different reflectra® product colours and effect options offering innovation to the garment decoration industry.
