Product Information

Full details

Siser Glow in the Dark EasyWeed Heat Transfer Vinyl is designed for apparel decorators and crafters who want to add a unique, high-visibility element to garments and accessories. This photoluminescent material absorbs light during the day to provide a vibrant neon green glow at night, making it ideal for t-shirts, caps, and bags. While it offers excellent versatility and ease of use with standard electronic cutters, users should note that the glow intensity depends on the amount of light exposure the material receives prior to being used in dark environments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this vinyl glow forever?

It is photoluminescent, meaning it recharges after exposure to light. It does not contain a battery and will dim after being away from a light source for an extended period.

Can I use this on nylon fabrics?

This product is designed for 100% cotton, 100% polyester, and poly/cotton blends. It is not recommended for nylon or heat-sensitive synthetics.

Do I need a special heat press?

No, it can be applied with a standard heat press or even a high-quality home iron, provided the correct temperature and pressure are maintained.

Is the glow intensity affected by washing?

The material is designed to be durable, but it should be washed inside out to protect the surface and preserve the glow capabilities over time.

Can I layer this vinyl?

Yes, Siser EasyWeed products are generally compatible with other EasyWeed materials for layering, provided you follow heat-press timing for the base layers.

Troubleshooting

Vinyl is not sticking to the fabric

Check your heat press temperature and pressure settings; ensure the fabric is free of moisture and finish coatings.

Design is difficult to weed

Verify your blade sharpness and cut depth; ensure you are using a clean cutting mat.

Vinyl peels after washing

Ensure you allowed for a 24-hour cure time and check that the temperature was high enough during the initial application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to cut with popular plotters like Cricut and Silhouette
  • Sticky carrier helps keep small pieces in place during weeding
  • Highly durable through standard laundry cycles
  • Safe for garments due to Oeko-Tex certification

Cons

  • Requires significant light exposure to maintain a strong glow
  • Limited to one neon green color variant
  • Must follow specific heat settings for best longevity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, use a sharp blade in your cutting plotter—settings similar to standard EasyWeed are typically recommended. Always cut the vinyl in mirror image as you are cutting the back side of the material.

Application Instructions:

  1. Pre-heat your garment to remove moisture.
  2. Place the design on the fabric with the carrier side facing up.
  3. Apply heat at the manufacturer-recommended temperature for the specific substrate.
  4. Remove the carrier sheet while warm or cool depending on your specific press results.

Care Instructions:

  • Wait at least 24 hours after application before washing the garment.
