Iron on Patch instructions
Preheat your iron: Set your iron to a medium to high heat setting.
Prepare the garment: Ensure that the garment or fabric item you plan to attach the patch to is clean and free from wrinkles. Lay it flat on a hard, sturdy, and heat-resistant surface.
Position the patch: Place the embroidered iron-on patch face up wherever you’d like.
Protect the patch: Place a piece of baking paper or cloth larger than the patch on top of the patch before ironing. This prevents direct contact between the iron and the embroidered surface.
Apply heat: Place the hot iron on top of the patch, directly over the design. Apply firm, even pressure without moving the iron around. Hold it in place for about 30-45 seconds.
Apply heat to the back: Turn garment inside-out and place the hot iron on the back of the patch, directly over the design, for about 30 seconds.
Check the adhesion: Carefully lift the corner of the patch to see if it adhered to the fabric. If the patch lifts off, place it back down and reapply heat for a few more seconds until it firmly sticks.
Allow to set: Let the patch and garment to cool down for a few minutes. Avoid touching the patch while it’s still warm, as it may not have fully bonded to the fabric yet. It’s generally recommended to wait at least 24 hours before washing to ensure maximum durability.
