Why switch to HTX Vinyls? 

• Better (lower) pricing, same awesome usability, and quality compared to the leading brands. Achieved simply by investing in better machinery, better raw material and less in advertisements and the several tiers of businesses profiting each time the product passes hands. Improvements in technology and the Internet make this possible. 
• Awesome usability featuring: 
• The advanced pressure-sensitive carrier allows detailed cutting while firmly grabbing the vinyl when weeding the excess vinyl outside the design area.
• WR-HT Glue (Wide Range Heat Transfer Glue) Allows the vinyl to be heat applicable at lower temperatures. 
• WR-HT Glue melts and activates at low pressure.
• WR-HT Glue is compatible with a wide range of fabrics.
• WR-HT Glue allows a one-step multi-layer application.
