PRE-WASH every item as many manufacturers treat fabrics, and that treatment will prevent adherence if not washed off first!
Using a Household Iron:
- Pre-heat iron to the med-high cotton temperature setting (without steam) and select a hard, flat pressing surface (not a padded ironing board).
- Position the patch on the pre-washed garment and cover it with a cotton cloth or patch-pressing sheet.
- Using an iron, apply constant pressure to the pressing sheet for 30-40 seconds (no back and forth).
- Turn the garment inside out and repeat, pressing directly on the garment to heat though the back of the patch.
- Enjoy! (the glue on your new patch should last for about 50 washes)
*If you have difficulty with adherence, increase heat, length of press, and pressure.
CARE: Once applied, appliques are permanently attached to garments and are washable. We recommend turning items inside out and washing it in Cold, on Delicate, and hanging dry to preserve the longevity of your decor.
Using a Heat Press:
1. 350 degrees for 30-40 Seconds (Medium pressure) Or 375 degrees for 20-25 Seconds (Med-Hard pressure). Since every press is a little different, you may need to adjust pressure or time.
