What is Gold Foil Printing?

Gold foil printing, also known as hot foil stamping, is a specialized printing technique that involves the application of metallic foil, often gold, to a surface. This method uses heat and pressure to transfer the foil onto the material, leaving an elegant, shiny design.

Achieving Real Gold Foil on Clothing

To achieve real gold foil on clothing, a method known as heat transfer foil printing, or simply foil printing, is used. In this process, a layer of adhesive is first screen printed onto the garment. The gold foil is then placed onto the adhesive and pressed. When the foil sheet is peeled away, it sticks to the adhesive, leaving the shiny gold foil effect on the garment.

This process, while more complex than standard DTG, results in a vibrant, eye-catching gold that really stands out.

Why Use Printful, Printify, or Gelato for Gold Foil Printing?

While it’s important to clarify that manufacturers like Printful, Printify, or Gelato do not offer genuine gold foil printing, their print quality paired with our gold textures still deliver an impressive, high-quality look without having to invest in new equipment and facilities.

Real gold foil printing can be prohibitively expensive and challenging to achieve in smaller quantities. However, using the gold textures provided at the bottom of this post together with the right manufacturer offers a practical and cost-effective alternative.
