FAQs
Can this fabric be ironed?
It is not recommended to iron the grip side directly as the heat may damage the non-slip texture.
Is this fabric machine washable?
While it can withstand light wear, hand washing is preferred to maintain the integrity of the grip surface.
Does it come with an adhesive backing?
No, this is a sew-on fabric material without a pre-applied adhesive.
Can I use this on outdoor steps?
This product is intended for indoor use, specifically for garments and household items; it is not rated for exterior weather conditions.
What is the best way to attach it to hard objects?
If you are not sewing it, a strong, permanent fabric-safe adhesive or double-sided craft tape can be used to bond the fabric to the base of ornaments.
Troubleshooting
Fabric slipping after application
Ensure the stitching is tight enough to hold the fabric flush against the slipper sole, or check that the surface underneath the decor is free from dust.
Difficulty cutting through the material
Use sharp, heavy-duty fabric shears rather than paper scissors to ensure clean edges and prevent fraying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply the fabric to slippers, use a standard sewing needle and thread; a slightly longer stitch length is recommended to accommodate the texture of the material. When using the fabric as a protective mat for decor, ensure the surface beneath is clean and dry to allow the fabric to grip properly. To clean the material, wipe it down with a damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or heavy machine washing, as this can degrade the grip coating over time.
