Create distinctive, premium-quality garment decoration with STAHLS' Puff Metallic Gold Heat Transfer Vinyl – Metallic Gold 118. This specialist metallic gold puff HTV expands during heat application to produce a soft, raised and three-dimensional finish that gives logos, lettering, numbers and bold graphic designs impressive depth and texture.
Combining a striking metallic gold appearance with the characteristic raised surface of puff vinyl, Metallic Gold 118 is ideal for garments and merchandise that need to stand out. It is particularly suited to sweatshirts, hoodies, streetwear, promotional clothing, clubwear and fashion collections where ordinary flat heat transfer vinyl does not provide enough visual impact.
STAHLS' Puff Metallic Gold 118 combines two powerful decorative effects in one material: a luxurious metallic gold colour and a distinctive raised finish. The result is a heat transfer design that immediately attracts attention while adding a tactile dimension to the garment.
The gold colour works particularly well on black, navy, burgundy, dark green and other deep-coloured textiles, where the metallic finish creates a strong contrast. It can also be used on white and neutral garments for elegant branding, fashion designs and premium merchandise.
Use Metallic Gold 118 for company logos, monograms, initials, large lettering, team names, jersey numbers, slogans and decorative graphic shapes. It is an excellent choice for clothing brands, print shops, sign makers, sports clubs and businesses looking to offer something more distinctive than standard smooth HTV.
STAHLS' Puff is engineered to expand when exposed to heat. During heat pressing, the material rises and develops a rounded, dimensional surface that can both be seen and felt.
This makes gold puff heat transfer vinyl particularly suitable for streetwear, fashion garments, hoodies and sweatshirts where texture plays an important role in the design. Even relatively simple lettering can achieve a completely different character when converted from a flat print into a raised 3D decoration.
For the most consistent puff effect, designs should contain relatively bold shapes and wider lines. Very thin lettering and extremely intricate details may not allow sufficient room for the material to expand evenly.
Metallic Gold 118 is especially effective on heavier garments such as hoodies and sweatshirts. These fabrics provide a stable foundation for the expanded surface and complement the substantial appearance of puff HTV.
The metallic gold finish is particularly suitable for creating an exclusive look on black or dark-coloured garments, making it ideal for premium collections, event clothing and branded merchandise.
STAHLS' Puff Metallic Gold 118 can be cut using a suitable vinyl cutting plotter. The artwork must be mirror cut before application so that the design appears correctly once transferred to the garment.
Because the material is approximately 520 microns thick, blade depth, cutting pressure and speed should be adjusted accordingly. A test cut is always recommended before production, particularly when using a new blade or changing cutter settings.
After cutting, remove the excess vinyl around the design. The pressure-sensitive carrier helps keep separate letters and design elements securely in position until the transfer is placed on the garment.
Position the weeded design on the garment with the carrier facing upwards. Ensure that the textile lies flat and that seams, zips, pockets or other raised areas do not interfere with pressure.
The final height and texture of the puff effect can vary depending on fabric thickness, temperature, pressure and pressing time. Always perform a test application before beginning larger production runs.
Avoid unnecessary repressing, as repeated heat and pressure can flatten or alter the raised surface.
STAHLS' Puff Metallic Gold 118 can be applied to a range of suitable textiles, including:
Polyester garments should always be tested for heat sensitivity and possible dye migration before production. Fabric construction, surface treatment and thickness can all influence adhesion and the finished puff effect.
