They come with a heat-activated adhesive on the back, making them easy to apply to various clothing items with just a household iron. This simple DIY technique allows you to add a personal touch to jackets, backpacks, hats, and more without any sewing!
How Do You Apply Iron on Patches?
Applying iron on patches is a straightforward process. First, set your iron to the hottest temperature suitable for the fabric you're working with, making sure to turn off the steam setting. Place a thin cloth or parchment paper over the patch, and press the iron down firmly for 30-45 seconds. Be sure to follow the specific instructions provided with each patch.
