How to apply a heat-seal/ Iron-on embroidered patch onto a T-shirt

Kuanex- John Chen demonstrates how to apply a heat seal Emblem onto a T-shirt.
Step:
1. Heat the iron with maximum temperature setting for 5 minutes.
2. Test your fabrics to see if it can take the heat with the iron.
3. Place the emblem/patch at right place.
4. Use a paper or cotton twill to protect your clothes.
5. Apply iron on the covered paper firmly for 20-30 seconds, and wait it to be cool for a minute.
6. Turn the clothes inside out and repeat the steps above till you feel the emblem is nicely binded with the fabrics.
7. Let it cool down for 5-10 minutes.
8. It is strongly recommended to add some stitches on the corners or the edges.

can use an vapor iron? Thanks

[kuanex]

This is a good question. :)

No Vapor will be better as we need the heat from the iron to melt the backing (325 F). If use vapor the heat seal backing will not bind with the twill nicely.

In addition, too strong vapor might caused some patch thread color go off. So use your iron without vapor on.

If the kid grows out of the shirt and the emblem is still good, can I somehow detach the patch and reapply to another garment?

Is it ok to use 150°C?
