How to Use: Iron-On Application
- Place the garment or accessory on a flat, heat-safe surface.
- Preheat a household iron to a high temperature setting suitable for the fabric. Turn off the steam function.
- Position the otter riding duck patch on the desired area with the embroidered side facing up and adhesive backing against the fabric.
- Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or cotton fabric to protect the embroidery from direct heat.
- Press the iron firmly over the patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying even pressure.
- Carefully turn the garment inside out and press the reverse side of the fabric behind the patch for an additional 15–30 seconds to help the adhesive bond.
- Allow the garment to cool completely so the adhesive can set.
Optional Sewing for Extra Security
- For high-movement areas or frequent washing, stitching around the edges is recommended.
- Use a sewing machine or hand-stitch with matching or clear thread to secure the patch through both the garment and the patch border.
- Edge stitching helps prevent lifting, especially on textured or flexible fabrics.
Care and Maintenance
- Turn garments with the patch inside out before machine washing when possible.
- Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent to extend the life of the embroidery.
- Avoid very high heat in the dryer; low or medium heat is recommended. Air drying is preferable for delicate fabrics.
- Do not apply direct hot ironing on the embroidered surface after attachment without a protective cloth.
- Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals that may affect thread color or adhesive.
- Occasional loose threads can be trimmed carefully with small scissors without pulling on the embroidery.
