How to Use the Iron-On Patch
- 1. Prepare the garment: Place the garment or accessory on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure the fabric is clean, dry, and free from wrinkles.
- 2. Position the patch: Decide where the witch opossum patch will be placed. Lay it embroidery-side up with the adhesive side against the fabric.
- 3. Protect the design: Cover the patch with a thin cloth, such as a cotton pressing cloth or pillowcase, to protect the embroidery from direct heat.
- 4. Set the iron: Heat the iron to a high temperature suitable for cotton or similar fabrics. Do not use steam.
- 5. Apply heat: Press the iron firmly over the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying even pressure.
- 6. Heat the reverse side: Turn the garment inside out and press the iron against the back side of the patch area for an additional 15–30 seconds to improve bonding.
- 7. Allow to cool: Let the patch and garment cool completely before wearing or handling to allow the adhesive to set.
Tips for Best Results
- Check the fabric care label before ironing to ensure it can withstand high heat.
- Do not iron onto fabrics that are very delicate, heat-sensitive, or heavily textured.
- For heavy-use garments such as jackets or backpacks, stitching the patch around the edges after ironing can improve long-term hold.
- Use a sewing machine or hand-stitch with matching or clear thread to secure the perimeter.
Care and Maintenance
- Turn garments inside out before machine washing to reduce abrasion on the embroidery.
- Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent when possible.
- Avoid very high-temperature washing or drying cycles that may affect the adhesive backing.
- Air drying is recommended for items with multiple patches or heavy embroidery.
- Do not bleach or use harsh chemicals directly on the patch.
- If ironing the garment after application, place a cloth over the patch and use medium heat.
