POLI-FLEX® TURBO is suitable for transfer to textiles like nylon, cotton, polyester, mixtures of polyester/cotton and polyester/acrylic. POLI-FLEX® can be used for lettering on T-shirts, sport & leisure wear, sport bags and promotional articles. It is a high quality htv that can be applied at a lower temperature for less pressing time.  This means less stress on the fabric and less chance of burning or discolouring from high temperatures, or those dreadful pressure marks from the heat press. 

 

POLI-FLEX® TURBO can be cut with all current plotters. We recommend using a standard 45° knife. After weeding the cut flex film is transferred by heat press. The polyester liner should be removed warm, except for the neon colours (4903, 4940 – 4943) the liner should be removed lukewarm.

 

More colours available from your local RB Digital office. When you order any multiple of 5 yards they will be cut as a continous roll up to a full roll.
