No, this product requires high heat to activate the adhesive, which may damage delicate or heat-sensitive fabrics.
While the heat-adhesive is designed to hold on its own, you may choose to stitch the edges for added decorative appeal or extra durability on high-friction areas.
It is recommended to let the garment sit undisturbed for at least 30 minutes to ensure the adhesive bond has fully cured.
Yes, once properly bonded and cooled, the patch is designed to withstand normal machine wash and dry cycles.
Absolutely. You can use standard fabric scissors to cut the sheet into any shape or size required for your specific repair.
Re-apply the iron with steady pressure for an additional 10 seconds to reactivate the adhesive, ensuring the corners are flat.
Verify that your iron is set to a cotton-appropriate heat level and that there is no dirt or fabric softener residue on the garment surface.
To prepare, ensure the garment is clean, dry, and free of lint. Avoid using fabric softener before applying, as it can interfere with the adhesive bond. This fabric is compatible with most natural fibers such as cotton and linen. Avoid using it on heat-sensitive synthetics like nylon or silk, as the high heat required for adhesion could scorch the base material. Once applied, allow the garment to cool completely for at least 30 minutes before wearing to let the adhesive set. For best results, turn the garment inside out before machine washing to reduce friction on the patch edges.
