what is flocked vinyl

Flocked vinyl, also known as flocked heat transfer vinyl (HTV), is a type of heat transfer vinyl that has a fuzzy or furry texture similar to suede or felt material. It is thicker than regular HTV and will raise the design, giving it dimension. Flocked vinyl is used for special crafting projects and produces a slightly raised design with a soft, fuzzy feel. It is often used to add a professional look to designs and can be used on a variety of materials, including fabrics and other soft materials. Flocked vinyl can be layered on top of other vinyl, and it can also be used as a base layer for other vinyl. When using flocked vinyl, it is important to consider factors such as temperature, duration, pressure, and the use of protective cloth. Flocked vinyl is available in a variety of colors and can be purchased online from various retailers.
