HOW TO APPLY – IRON-ON (FOR PLACEMENT)

Use heat to place the patch, then sew it down if you want it extra secure.

Iron Method
• Set your iron to high cotton with NO steam.
• Place the patch where you want it on your garment, bag, or hat.
• Cover with a pressing cloth or thin fabric.
• Press firmly for 15–20 seconds, keeping the iron in place.
• Let it cool completely.

Heat Press Method (for jackets/bags)
• Set your press to 285–305°F (140–150°C), medium–firm pressure.
• Pre-press the item for 3–5 seconds to remove moisture and wrinkles.
• Place the patch and cover with a Teflon sheet, parchment paper, or pressing cloth.
• Press for 12–15 seconds.
• Check the edges; if any are lifting, press again for 5–8 seconds.
• Let cool completely.

For best results on denim and heavy-use items, sew around the edge after applying with heat.

Always follow your item’s care label and any instructions for your adhesive. These are general guidelines.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

• Wait 24–48 hours before washing after applying the patch.
• Wash inside out on a gentle cycle in cold or warm water (if the item is washable).
• Hang dry or tumble dry on low.
• If ironing later, turn the item inside out and avoid placing direct heat on the patch surface.
