FAQs
Can these be used on synthetic fabrics?
These patches are designed specifically for cotton denim and corduroy. Using them on heat-sensitive synthetics may melt the fabric.
Do I need to sew the patches?
Sewing is optional but recommended for areas subject to extreme stress or frequent washing, using the provided pre-punched holes.
What temperature should I wash my repaired jeans at?
These patches are safe to wash at temperatures up to 40 °C.
Can I trim the patch to a smaller size?
Yes, you can cut the patches with fabric shears to fit specific tear shapes before ironing.
Should I use steam when ironing?
No, it is best to use a dry iron to ensure the adhesive bonds correctly without moisture interference.
Troubleshooting
The edges of the patch are peeling off after washing.
Re-apply heat to the edges with an iron. If the issue persists, use the pre-punched holes to sew the patch down securely.
The patch does not stick to the denim fabric.
Ensure your iron is set to the 'Cotton' or 'High' heat setting and verify that no steam is being used during the application process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a lasting repair, prepare the fabric by ensuring it is clean, dry, and flat. When ironing, avoid using steam, as moisture can interfere with the heat-activated adhesive. After initial application, allow the garment to cool completely before wearing it to let the adhesive set fully. For cleaning, the patch is rated for temperatures up to 40 °C. Turn the garment inside out before washing to reduce external friction on the patch edges, which helps prevent peeling over time.
