Reflective Material Project
Reflective material is material such as a fabric with spherical tiny glass beads that reflect light to its source.
Reflective materials gained popularity in the 1930s when they were first introduced. They were mainly used on stop signs and asphalt.
By the 1980s, the reflective materials diverted to sneakers, road signs, uniforms, highways, traffic signage, and backpacks.
Today, reflective materials are used widely and are available in various types of textures such as matte, glossy, and three-dimensional effect.
How do reflective materials work?
The tiny spherical beads are coated with aluminum on one of its sides and then are stuck to a material to develop a reflective material.
This technique allows light to bounce back to its source regardless of what angle the light struck the reflective material.
When can a reflective material be used?
Reflective materials have a vast array of applications, and the list of applications is virtually endless.
From safety vests and straps to hats, coats, shoes and rain gears, reflective material can be used on literally any object.
The most common ones include the following:
- Safety vests and straps.

If you opt for handwashing, opt for a cold wash with no softeners and bleach. Nonetheless, begin by removing the loose dirt from the clothing using a clean, dry cloth.
Soak the reflective clothing for approximately 20-30 minutes. Afterward, use a sponge or cotton cloth to measure a suitable amount of light detergent.
Then tenderly wipe the surface of the clothes. Avoid using a brush as brushes are rough and wear off the microbeads.
If there are stains on your reflective clothing, remember to avoid bleach. Bleach fades the reflective properties of the cloth.
Instead, use a mild stain remover. Additionally, use cotton wool or cotton cloth to remove the stains.
Overall, your washing approach should be gentle, and you should avoid harsh approaches.
