Results Metal is a metallic cut heat transfer film on a polyurethane face, about 50-60 micron, with a shiny metallic surface that contours to the fabric. The film weeds cleanly for fine detail and presses onto cotton, 50/50 blends, polyester, acrylic, and Lycra, it does not suit all nylons. A single film gives two looks: shiny on the first press, more matte on a second press. It uses a light-friction carrier and keeps a soft hand through repeated washing. Applied at about 300-305 F with medium pressure and a cold peel. Recommended for metallic lettering, team uniforms, and fashion graphics.
