Swarovski Hot Fix Rhinestones come from the factory with a heat activated glue already attached to the back of each crystal. The glue melts at about 340 to 375 degrees.
This type of crystal is used only for fabrics and are applied using a heat applicator tool like a household iron, heat press or a specialized tool like a The Professional Touch. The Professional Touch will pick up round hot fix rhinestones, heat them until the glue begins to melt so that you can attach them to your fabric. Its quick, its clean and its easy!!!
