What Are Hotfix Crystals? Hotfix crystals are flatback glass crystal rhinestones with a heat-activated adhesive pre-applied to the flat reverse of the stone. When heat is applied using a hotfix applicator wand, heat press or iron (steam off), the adhesive melts and bonds the crystal permanently to the fabric surface. Also known as iron-on crystals or heat-fix rhinestones, they are the fastest and most popular method for applying crystals to garments, dancewear, costumes and textile accessories at both small and production scale. The key advantage over non-hotfix is speed. An applicator wand places a single stone in seconds; a heat press applies multiple stones simultaneously across a large area. For fabric applications on garments that will be washed regularly, hotfix provides a strong and reliable bond when applied at the correct temperature and pressure. Note that hotfix crystals are not suitable for nail art or any surface that cannot withstand the heat required to activate the adhesive. Which Brand Is Right for You?
