Washing
Garments with transfer labels can be washed
over 20 times if the label has been transferred
correctly. Normal biological and non-biological
household detergents may be used.
The label may become discolor if the garment is
placed in bleach for an extended length of time.
Be careful that hard objects such as buckles or
buttons do not come into contact with the label
during the wash.
Do not dry clean garments that have had trans-
fer labels applied.
Drying
Garments with transfer labels may be dried
either inside or outside out.
Do not tumble dry. The transfers will come off
and may stick to other items of clothing.
Ironing
Iron garments with transfers using normal tem-
perature settings.
Be sure to place a piece of cloth between the
iron and the label when you iron over it to pre-
vent the label from sticking to the iron.
The labels are non-toxic, however, please main-
tain the usual precautions, such as not placing
them in your mouth, etc.
Fabric tape
Fabric tape is used to attach a piece of fabric
printed with your text onto garments using an
iron. After printing the text onto fabric tape and
cutting off the label using scissors, place the
label on an ironed garment at the location
where you wish to attach it in such a way that
the printed text can be read correctly. Cover the
label with another piece of cloth and use an
iron set to a medium-high temperature (320 to
356 °F (160 to 180 °C)) to press down firmly for
15 to 30 seconds. For more details, refer to the
instructions included with the fabric tape cas-
sette.
NOTE
☞
White garments made from 100% cotton with a
plain (smooth) surface are best for iron-on trans-
fers.
You can also make transfers to garments made
from 100% linen or cotton/polyester blends as
long as they have a plain (smooth) surface.
☞
The label will not adhere properly to any cloth
with a rough surface, such as pile or denim, or
with a waterproof surface. Heat-sensitive mate-
rials, such as nylon, acetate or other similar
fibers
, are also unsuitable as they may be dam-
aged when pressing with an iron at a high tem-
perature.
☞
Do not move the iron while pressing, otherwise
the label may move out of the desired position.
Press the iron straight down onto the cloth.
☞
After the backing tape has been removed, the
transferred label may appear glossy. In addition,
some white spots may have appeared on the
label if it was touched while the backing tape
was peeled off. These can be removed by iron-
ing over the label with a piece of cloth placed
between the label and the iron.
☞
Since the transferred label cannot be removed
once it is applied, make all transfers with care.
