02 · BackgroundHow Rhinestones Are Applied

Hot-fix stones carry a heat-melt adhesive back and are applied with a press, often through a transfer motif: the design is arranged on film, positioned on the garment and pressed once. Sew-on stones have holes for stitching and suit heavy or stretch garments. Flatbacks are glued. Production quality is checked by wash and rub tests, because a stone that sheds in wear is the category's defining failure.

QuestionsCommon Questions

What does SS mean in rhinestone sizes?

SS stands for stone size, a traditional sizing scale: common garment stones run from SS6 (about 2 mm) to SS40 (about 8.5 mm). Sizes must match setting tools and transfer templates.

What is a hot-fix rhinestone?

A flatback stone coated with heat-activated adhesive. Pressed with heat, it bonds directly to fabric — the standard method for motif transfers on garments.

Are rhinestones glass or crystal?

Both exist: molded glass stones are the volume product; lead-crystal stones (such as Austrian crystal) have higher refraction and price. Acrylic stones serve the costume and craft end.
