GIRAFVINYL Sliver Holographic Permanent Vinyl 12" X 6FT Glossy Iridescent Vinyl Permanent Adhesive Vinyl for DIY Home and Car, Sign, Windows Christmas Decor

The color is amazing

Love it

I bought this for a kind of weird purpose, adding trim to the belt straps of a cosplay made fully out of this shiny pleather/vinyl material. I wasn’t entirely sure if it would work, or even if it was heat transfer vinyl or adhesive-backed vinyl, based off of the listing and reviews. But it ended up working out perfectly! It is adhesive-backed, essentially it’s a long roll of holo vinyl with a decently sticky and strong sticker backing with a plastic protective layer.There’s reviews saying it was hard to work with but personally I didn’t have any issues. Others said it was weird with cricuit machines, but I wouldn’t know as I cut mine by hand with scissors, and it was as easy as precise work on a slippery fabric like this gets. I didn’t even have many wrinkles, as it has enough stretch to pull them out while you’re sticking it down. I will say things go a lot smoother (literally lol) if you’re patient and delicate with this, as it’s in the nature of something like this to want to stick to itself and anything that touches it.As for the process, I just marked the vinyl to measure on the white back, cut strips as long as each strap I was putting it on, each 1cm wide, and slowly peeled the backing off of the adhesive (section by section) as I folded it over the edge (1/2 cm on the front, 1/2 cm on the back), sticking it in place. It added a lot to the costume, especially for so cheap and in a small handful of hours of tedious but easy/passive work.The holo effect is really pretty, the base is silver and it shifts with rainbow colors. The holographic shifts look the best in indoor lighting with just one bright light directly on it. In bright daytime lighting, it’s not as clear and looks more like a plain silver, though that’s to be expected with anything holographic. Shipping was really fast. The base Lio Fotia cosplay is from miccostumes if anyone’s curious. ^_^

Loving the vinyl so far. Cut on my cricket super easy and the weeding was easy, clean and no problems. Please make if you are using this, that their is a plastic film over the top to prevent scratching. This must be removed before you cut. I will do a update once the decal is on my car and out in the sun for a while. I love the color with the rainbow and blue but so far have not found any that hold up to AZ sun.

Cute

This vinyl was easy to cut and weeded beautifully.

The media could not be loaded. Here's what Holographic Green looks like. More of a teal green with flashes of red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo, purple. Wild stuff. It is hard to just call it "green" because it changes so much with the light and is reflective. When the sunlight hits it just right it actually is a blinding white.

This stuff is pliable, sticks well and does not scratch. I can only imagine all the complaints about scratching is from not removing protective film. I love the effect and the ability to remove and reapply. I did use my heat gun on low and when placed I don't believe it will ever come loose accidentally. Great value. Color is less dramatic than picture but with "crafty" attention to detail you can definitely create the affect you are after.
