How to Apply – Iron-On Instructions
For best results, apply the winged skull patch to a clean, dry fabric surface such as cotton or denim. The following is a general iron-on method; always consider the heat tolerance of your garment fabric:
- Preheat a household iron to a high temperature suitable for the garment (typically “cotton” setting). Turn off steam.
- Lay the garment on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
- Position the patch on the desired area, embroidered side up and adhesive side down against the fabric.
- Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or piece of cotton fabric to protect the embroidery.
- Press the iron firmly onto the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds without moving the iron back and forth.
- Check that the patch has adhered. If edges are lifting, repeat pressing in those areas for a few more seconds.
- Turn the garment inside out and press the reverse side where the patch is attached for additional bonding, again for about 15–30 seconds.
- Allow the garment and patch to cool completely before wearing or handling extensively.
Additional Security – Sewing Recommendation
While the iron-on adhesive provides a strong initial bond, especially on suitable fabrics, sewing is recommended for maximum long-term durability, particularly on items exposed to regular movement, friction, or outdoor use. The patch can be stitched along the border with a sewing machine or by hand using strong thread that coordinates with the edge color.
Care and Maintenance
- If possible, wash the garment inside out to reduce abrasion on the embroidered surface.
- Use cold or lukewarm water settings according to the garment’s care instructions.
- Avoid high-heat drying; air drying or low-heat tumble drying is preferable to help preserve adhesive and threads.
- Do not apply a hot iron directly on the embroidered face; always use a pressing cloth if ironing over the patch area is necessary.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach directly on the patch.
