The Preciosa MAXIMA Machine Cut (MC) Chaton Rose Flat Back is the most brilliant cut that Preciosa offers. This premium, lead-free product line meets the highest industry standards of quality and ecological certification.Preciosa employs the most advanced technologies and several internationally patented processes to achieve the level of precision that gives this product its unparalleled sparkling aesthetic.
The MC Chaton Rose MAXIMA is able to reflect 264 unique rays of light – the highest available on the market – this brand new product range is simply unparalleled. MAXIMA is the essence of crystal brilliance. An extension of our existing MC Chaton Rose VIVA 12 product range, this premium counterpart was created using the latest cutting software. These are very popular for bridal, ballroom dance, Irish Dance, and any kind of costume design. These are widely used in many industries, such as nail art, electronics, automobiles, and so many more!
This product range is available in foiled and hot-fix versions, both with a silver reflective layer, resulting in a substantial improvement in the overall visual impact. Ensuring greater light reflection and intensity, the silver layer, combined with the optimized cut, creates a sparkling effect sure to illuminate the forthcoming fashion seasons.
Likewise, a new satin layer, available in both foiled and hot-fix versions, also allows for easy and improved application to various textiles. The bottom of each stone is covered by an innovative layer of satin, giving it a white-silver look, which not only eases the application but also aesthetically enhances the product range. To be sure, the color of this layer is designed so that its hue does not interfere with the impression of the stone itself, but rather allows for easy application to transparent materials on which the use of this premium product sensibly fits the luxury concept of the end product as envisaged by the designer.
MC Chaton Rose MAXIMA is available in a carefully curated yet varied selection of 48 colors and 25 coatings. The advanced technology also ensures that the colors and coatings maintain the maximum shade consistency, the entire process is strictly supervised by the Production and Quality Departments, who guarantee the highest standard and a minimal defect rate.
Choosing the right size of flatback crystal is sometimes daunting as they come in so many sizes. The Maxima Crystal is currently available in sizes 3ss - 48ss. Large sizes from ss30 to ss48 are excellent for adding impressive accents to your jewelry and accessories, while smaller sizes such as 3ss – 20ss are great for fine detail and fill work. See our crystal sizing chart to decide which is the best crystal size for your design.
Choosing the right Adhesive for applying flatback crystals depends greatly on the surface you will be applying the stone to. For cotton and synthetic fabrics, the Dreamtime Creations Gemtac Adhesive is a great option, as is the new FabricTack, which will hold up through many washer and dryer exposures. E6000 adhesive is also a very popular choice for adhering to fabrics and hard surfaces, if you prefer a glue without the smell of E6000, please try the MultiGrab360, it has been tested and CrystalNinja approved. If you plan on applying flatback crystals to fabric only, consider the Preciosa Hotfix Crystals, which come pre-manufactured with a small amount of dried adhesive on the back. Adhesives on Hot Fix crystals are activated with a Hot Fix application tool or heat press. Hotfix stones make a great choice for making crystal transfers and appliqués. If you are applying the Maxima to metal, glass, or other hard plastic surfaces, a two-part epoxy is a great solution. Two-Part rhinestone epoxy offers durability and strong bonds to nonporous surfaces because of the chemical reaction that takes place during the hardening process.
Crystal Application Tips and Tricks
1. If you are using Gemtac, FabricTack, Multi Grab 360, E6000, or Two-Part epoxy glues for your project, it is really helpful to use a small syringe for distributing your glue. This helps in getting the perfect amount of glue in the areas you need without extra glue bleeding out on the backside of your crystal. For crystals ss12 to ss20 only a small dot about the size of a toothpick is required.
2. Apply your glue to the surface area first, then place your crystals on top of the glue.
3. When applying a large group of crystals to a surface, work in rows from left to right so that you can straighten the edge design as you go.
4. Tools like tweezers, wax dop sticks, and the Crystal Katana, are really helpful in picking up and placing stones where you need them to go with precision.
