Because there is not any organization of quality control, each manufacturer and distributore define the quality degree by themselves, according to the Market comparison, the purchase price, the business needs. Which leads to confuse the price and quality of hotfix material in the market.

In the market, there are two colors of hotfix tape, white and yellow. The white tape can be divided into rough pattern, mid-rough and fine. Generally speaking, as the stria in bottom, the hot fix material will not distorted. As for yellow tape, its bottom is more flat, but the which glue is well.

But for fine processing, can make the pattern as the effective design, which modify the material of wrong color mixed, broken, glue lost and site changed. Usually, it takes two-thirds time to finish a rough processing than careful one.

There are many methods to hotfix motifs, such as seam hotfix, machine hotfix, laser hotfix, electronic iron hotfix, etc. Generally speaking, the essential factors of hotfix motifs are temperature, time and pressure. The best temperature of hotfix rhinestuds and nailheads is 140 degree; As for rhinestones, domestic one needs about 140 degree, and imported ones need 160-200 degree. Usually it takes 10-15 seconds to hotfix motifs, but for special material, it is based on the actual situation. The moderately pressure is depended on the material of apparel & textile. If the material is thin, low temperature will be ok, otherwise, temperature is high. Certainly it is easy to hotfix on tidy material, but for other meterial, such as vary thickness, and different rhinestones or rhienstuds, the cushion coat with good elasticity will be essential, because of high pressure. To be reminded, it is easy to dyeing to hotfix domestic rhinestuds on white material with seam hotfix method, so you have to choose other hotfix methods. The domestics hotfix rhinestuds and nailheads is easy to loose color except white and yellow one, which is hard to find out one the colored material. For motifs on printing, you should leave a hole at the site of rhinestones or rhinestuds, otherwise, it is easy to lose.
