A method allowing retro-reflective material to be applied on elastic materials, bodies and fabrics by which it is possible to manufacture retro-reflective products that do not suffer from deterioration, cracking or breaking of the applied retro-reflective material when stretched, and that allows, at the same time, to fully retain the properties, color and shape of the elastic material or fabric upon which the procedure was conducted, that comprises the following steps: a) thermal application of retro-reflective material, which includes an amount of retro-reflective material that varies from 0.5 and 3.5 cmper square centimeter of elastic material being treated, a temperature that varies between 110.0 and 215.0° C., a pressure that varies between 1.020 and 6.021 Kg/cm; this step must be performed while the elastic body is subjected to a stretching ranging between 5.0 and 50.0% of its total expansion potential, over a period of time that fluctuates between 4.0 and 45.0 seconds or, where appropriate, in a continuous manner, at a speed rate that varies between 0.01 and 4.00 m/s; and b) smoothing and fixing of the product, step which comprises applying a temperature that varies between 50.0 and 165.0° C., a pressure that varies between 0.0112 and 0.5602 kg/cm, during a period of time that fluctuates between 1.5 and 60 seconds or, where appropriate, at a speed rate which varies between 0.01 and 6.00 m/s, while performing a new stretching, which should vary between 0.2 and 40.0% of the product's total potential expansion. 1.
