foils are plastic films manufactured to be shiny, resembling metallic leaf when applied to cloth. They are perfect for a bit of shine and high textural contrast. In order for foils to be permanent on cloth they must be applied to a permanent, water based adhesive, and heat must be used for the application, as opposed to rubbing or burnishing.
