I was told the bobbin thread shouldn't have a shine, do these have a shine?

This does have a shine. Not sure why that would be an issue. I can only say that this thread has worked superbly in a machine that has not worked well with ANY other bobbin threads I have tried-shine/no shine, bobbins I have wound/other brands of pre-wound.

Positively Not! The polish is sticky and dries to a high shine. Needs no buffing. In fact buffing might remove the polish and/or stick to the buffer. .

Im not sure what the thread count is. However, I am sure that they are a metric thread. The cost is such a cheep price, If it were me, just give it a try. God bless and good luck.

I honestly don't know which thread it is... I have spoken to several people who say it really doesn't matter which bobbin thread you use as long as its embroidery thread and the bobbin is the correct one for your machine. I have now used at least 60 of these bobbins with NO trouble at all. I have also used the empty to wind my own thread so that the back color matches when stitching lace, with NO problem! Hope this helps!!

Does have a shine. Has brush feel. If no lights above, shine should be at a minimal.

I say no to this.... There is no shine or slippery finish. They are more crisp than soft... Hard to describe, reminded me of the sheets on the beds at my grandmothers house. They wrinkle some even if you zip them right out of the dryer.... I have three sets and find them to be the cheapest organic chemical free sheets I could find... Not perfect, but clean bedding is important to me.

I didn't clean mine since they were bright enough and I have not noticed them getting dark at all.

After working with these for a while, I would not recommend them. When I ordered 50 cheap bobbins, they were not exactly the same as the Pfaff brand bobbins. I have had them break from too much pressure from winding very fine thread on them. Also the disks on the side are thicker and do not work right on on the winder of my Pfaff Creative 2170.

This looks like the bobbin in my machine. I do not have any trouble with uneven stitching or loops in the bobbin thread after it gets started. However I have had to order several new bobbin cases as the needle does puncture the plastic if it gets out of sinc.

They do have a shine too them. I would not call them a matte finish. I compared them to my MIKASA Italian Countryside and they have about the same shine. If I had to say... Thomson is a tiny tiny bit more. But I had to really look. Hope this helps

My threads are in storage ..they are very much as pictured. The numbers are in the 500's I do not know DMC system. I usually buy sufficient thread for a project and buy it by sight so the numbers mean very little to me. There is, I know a very soft tan and what I would call gold but there are several yellow's....some very light tints and some closer to the soft tan and those I would class as gold. However, if you are looking for a metallic appearance there is none.

these are satin black. not glossy at all but not flat like a primer either. they may shine up a little with polishing compound or an oil rub. hmmm I'll have to try that as well.

No, since they are fluorescent colors if you have a black light on them, they will shine.

Some have reflective threads interwoven, and some do not. I'm still trying to ascertain from reviews if there is a difference in the thickness of the material between the regular and the reflective...

these are generic bobbins and dont fit snuggly in machine. i have a different brother and bought these because they said they were the same style. they made an awful noise rattling in my machine and my stitches were less even. refer to your machine's manual and buy name brand. its worth it

No, they are made with a glittery thread, not real glitter. They actually aren't that glittery as a result, but at least there's no shedding.

I purchased these bobbins for my 750 Golden Touch & Sew zig-zag machine.I sold my machine with those bobbins and never got a chance to use them on it.
