- Ideal for Small Patches: Thanks to the high-definition printing process, even small patches maintain excellent detail and clarity.
Limitations

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Heat press Application
- Preheat the fabric for 5 seconds to remove wrinkles.
- Set Heat Press to 320°F (160°C), 60-70 psi pressure, and 15-20 seconds time.
- Position the Patch on the fabric, ensuring smooth alignment.
- Apply Heat Press for the set time, applying even pressure.
- Cool for a few seconds, then remove the backing and let the patch cool completely before handling.
- Inspect the patch to ensure a secure bond. Repress if necessary.
Sew-On Application Instructions
To securely attach your patch to the garment, we recommend using one of the following stitch types
Runstitch
- Use a simple, straight stitch along the edges of the patch.
- Ideal for a clean, basic attachment.
Zigzag Stitch
- Use a zigzag stitch along the perimeter of the patch for extra durability and to prevent fraying.
- This stitch provides a bit of flexibility and a stronger hold.
Satin Stitch
- A dense zigzag stitch that covers the edge completely, giving a smooth, polished finish.
- Ideal for decorative patches or when a more refined look is desired.
Thread Selection
For the best results, we recommend using Isacord thread due to its durability and smooth finish.
ISACORD Thread Color
Please provide the Isacord thread number you’d like to use for your patch application.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Position the patch on your garment in the desired location.
- Pin or temporarily adhesive the patch in place to prevent shifting while sewing.
- Choose one of the stitch types listed above based on your preference and desired finish.
- Sew around the edge of the patch, ensuring you stitch through both the patch and the garment fabric.
- For added security, reinforce the corners or edges with additional stitches.
Washing INSTRUCTIONS
To keep your custom patches looking fresh and vibrant, follow these care instructions based on the patch type.
General Patch Care Guidelines:
Turn Inside Out – Always turn garments inside out before washing to reduce friction.
Use Mild Detergent – Harsh chemicals can damage colors and fabric.
