FAQs

Are these patches suitable for all types of fabric?

These patches are best suited for sturdy fabrics like cotton, denim, and polyester blends. They may not adhere well or could damage very delicate or heat-sensitive materials.

Can I wash my garment with these patches in a regular washing machine?

Yes, the patches are machine washable up to 30°C. It is recommended to wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle.

How long do the patches typically last?

When applied correctly and cared for according to instructions, the patches are designed to be durable and long-lasting, maintaining their appearance through multiple washes.

What is the best way to apply the patches?

The patches are iron-on. You'll need to preheat your iron to a medium-high setting (no steam), place the patch on the fabric, cover with a pressing cloth, and press firmly for 15-20 seconds.

Are these patches only for children's clothes?

While the size is suitable for children's garments, they can be used on any item where a small, black microfibre suede patch is desired for repair or decoration.

Can I dry clean items with these patches?

Yes, the patches are dry cleanable, offering an alternative care method.

What should I do if the patch doesn't stick?

Ensure your iron is hot enough, you're using firm pressure, and the fabric is clean and dry. Try applying heat again for slightly longer, always using a pressing cloth.

Troubleshooting

Patch not adhering properly

Ensure the iron was hot enough and sufficient pressure was applied for the recommended time. Check that the fabric surface was clean and dry before application. Try ironing again, possibly for a slightly longer duration.

Patch peeling after washing

Wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. If peeling persists, re-iron the patch following the application instructions.

Fabric discoloration around the patch

This may occur if the iron was too hot or applied for too long directly onto the patch. Ensure a pressing cloth is used and avoid excessive heat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a high-quality suede-like aesthetic.
  • Durable and long-lasting finish.
  • Color remains stable through washing and cleaning.
  • Simple and quick to apply with an iron.
  • Suitable for various fabric types.

Cons

  • Requires an iron for application.
  • May not be suitable for very delicate fabrics.
  • Patch size is specific and might not fit larger repair needs without multiple applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup (Iron-On Application):

  1. Prepare the Fabric: Ensure the garment area where the patch will be applied is clean and dry. Pre-wash the garment if possible.
  2. Preheat Iron: Set your iron to a medium-high heat setting, typically suitable for cotton. Avoid using steam.
  3. Position Patch: Place the patch onto the desired location on the fabric, ensuring the adhesive side is down.
  4. Iron: Place a pressing cloth (like a thin cotton fabric) over the patch. Press the iron firmly onto the patch for 15-20 seconds. Ensure even pressure is applied across the entire patch.
  5. Cool Down: Allow the patch to cool completely before testing its adhesion. Gently try to lift a corner; if it peels, repeat the ironing process.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for most common fabrics like cotton, denim, polyester blends, and fleece.
  • Not recommended for use on waterproof materials, highly textured fabrics, or synthetics that cannot withstand medium-high heat.

Care:

  • Machine Wash: Wash garments with applied patches inside out in cold or lukewarm water (up to 30°C). Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results.
  • Dry Cleaning: Patches can also be dry cleaned.
  • Ironing after Washing: If needed, iron the garment on a low setting, avoiding direct heat on the patch itself.
