Yes, template flock is needed to make a rhinestone template. You can see the the required materials and steps to create a template listed above.

You should always check the application instructions on the product page of the exact stones you purchased but the typical temperature range is 300f to 355f.

How to Make a Rhinestone Template?

What will you need?

Rhinestone software
Vinyl Cutters
Heat Presses
Hot fix rhinestones
Flock (big enough for your design - we used Template Flock)
KTM (rhinestone transfer) masks
Rhinestone template board
Rhinestone brush
Tweezers
Squeegee

1) Load your flock in the cutter (texture side face up).

2) Export your rhinestone design to your preferred cutting software and send it to your cutter. Normally, template flock is cut at a heavier pressure and is recommended to use a 60 degree blade.

3) Peel the flock from its liner. This will reveal the holes that you have cut in your cutter, which will act as your stone placements. You may need to hand remove and left over dots that did not peel up.

4) Place the flock (sticky side down) on your template board.

5) Pour rhinestones on your board and gently brush the rhinestones across your design using a rhinestone brush. Do this until they each have a spot in one of the stone placement holes in your flock. Often, many of the rhinestones will fall into the holes the proper way. However, some stones will likely fall upside down, or may be too stubborn to even fall into a hole. In that case, tweezers may be needed to properly place some rhinestones in their place.

6) Now that your stones are in place, grab your KTM (rhinestone transfer) mask and peel it off its liner. Place it (carefully!) on top of the rhinestone design.

7) Apply medium to firm pressure across the entire design to ensure that the rhinestones stick to the KTM mask. For smaller designs, you can use your hand; however, for larger designs we recommend using a squeegee.

8) Peel the rhinestone KTM mask away from the flock in a smooth motion. If you find that not all rhinestones are sticking to the KTM mask, simply lay the mask back down and apply more pressure in that area.

9) Now that your rhinestone design is on the KTM mask, if you aren’t ready to press your design, place the design back on the liner of the KTM mask and save until you’re ready to press. You may notice that the fibres from the template flock are sticking to the KTM mask. No worries, these fibres will not stick to your garment when pressing! If you are ready to press, go to the next step.

10) Place your design on your garment and press at 325°F degrees for 15 seconds, peel cold. It is very important to peel the design after it has completely cooled down.
