FAQs

What fabrics is this hemming tape best for?

It is best for medium to heavy weight fabrics, such as denim, canvas, skirts, dresses, trousers, jackets and coats.

Can I use this on delicate fabrics?

While it can be used on some delicate fabrics, it's recommended to test on a scrap piece first due to the heat involved.

How do I clean items hemmed with this tape?

Items can be machine washed at 60°C and are dry cleanable.

How long should I iron the hem?

Press firmly with a medium-hot iron for about 10-15 seconds step by step, using a damp cloth.

What if the hem comes undone after washing?

Ensure the iron was hot enough and applied for the correct duration during application. Check that you are not exceeding the maximum washing temperature of 60°C.

Is this product suitable for large projects?

No. For fusing large areas, consider using Vliesofix Bondaweb instead.

What is the width of the hemming tape?

The hemming tape is 20mm wide.

Troubleshooting

Hem not sticking properly.

Ensure the iron is hot enough, apply pressure evenly, and use a damp cloth. Test on a fabric remnant first.

Hem peeling or coming undone after washing.

Ensure the fabric is compatible and the iron was hot enough for the duration required. Check washing temperature does not exceed the recommended 60C.
