FAQs
Can this patch be applied to leather?
Ironing is not recommended for leather as the heat can damage the material. For leather items, it is best to sew the patch on instead.
Is it safe for children's clothing?
Yes, as long as it is securely ironed or sewn, it is safe for standard children's clothing.
Does the patch fade in the wash?
The embroidery is color-fast, but we recommend washing at 40 degrees Celsius or lower to maintain the integrity of the threads.
Can I use steam while ironing the patch?
It is recommended to use a dry setting to ensure the adhesive melts correctly and forms a strong bond.
How do I remove the patch if I change my mind?
If ironed on, you can often loosen the adhesive by reheating the patch with an iron, though some residue may remain on the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Patch edges peeling off
Re-apply the iron with a pressing cloth for an additional 20 seconds or use a needle and thread to tack down the corners.
Patch will not stick to fabric
Ensure the fabric surface is clean and not heat-sensitive (such as certain nylons or waterproof coatings) that prevent adhesives from bonding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply via iron: Preheat your iron to a medium-high setting, place the patch in the desired position, and cover it with a thin pressing cloth to protect the embroidery. Apply firm, steady pressure for 30-45 seconds. Allow the patch to cool completely before testing the bond. For extra security on heavy-use items like school bags, we recommend adding a few stitches around the edges. To care for your item, turn the garment inside out before washing to reduce surface friction, and avoid high-heat tumble drying if possible.
