Step-By-Step Pressing Instructions

Position Your Patch:

Secure the patch to your garment with Thermal Tape (heat resistant tape) to ensure it stays in the desired location. The patch will be pressed facing down, touching the bottom platen.


Load Garment Onto Heat Press Face Down:

Once the patch is taped in place, flip the garment over and place it onto the heat press with the patch facing downwards, touching the lower platen. This allows the low-melt glue on the back of the patch to adhere to the garment without damaging the visible side of the patch.


Press:

Lay a protective guard sheet over the garment to protect it from the heat. Press for 20 seconds at 350°F with 70-80 PSI or medium-firm pressure..


Allow Patch & Garment To Cool:

After pressing, remove the garment from the press and allow it to cool for at least 30 seconds before removing the thermal tape. This ensures the melted glue solidifies and bonds the patch to the garment.

Additional Details

For Thicker Fabrics (Hoodies, Jackets, etc.):

If the patch isn’t adhering properly to thick materials, flip the garment inside out and position it on the heat press with the back of the patch facing up. Lay a protective guard sheet over the garment and press for 20 seconds at 350°F with 70-80 PSI or medium-firm pressure.
