INSTRUCTIONS FOR FABRIC IRON-ON SHEET
- Before
printing on the iron-on fabric sheet, it is a good idea to test your
layout. After you have created the
image, print them on practice paper.
Cut them out as you would the fabric sheets and place it on the
muslin square of fabric. Make sure
you like the image, placement, shape, color, clarity and content before
you print on the fabric sheets.
Make any adjustments and retest before you print on the iron-on
fabric sheets
- When
you have the image you are satisfied with, you are ready to print on the
iron-on fabric sheets. Print on
the fabric-side, not the iron-on side.
Feed sheets individually.
Once printed, place the fabric sheet on a flat surface overnight to
let the ink set. To prevent images
from becoming smeared, do not stack or touch printed sheets until they
have set.
- Using
household scissors, cut out the image.
Place it on the muslin square.
At this point you will need to decide if you would like your
project to be hand washable.
- Handwashing:Your
project can be handwashed if the images have first been treated with
several applications of acrylic sealer.
Apply the sealer to your printed images prior to ironing them onto
the project. You may use Fabric
Transfer Spray ( Super Cal Last Step Overcoat Decal Spray) . Plan to apply at least 3 coats to
assure colorfastness. The ink
must set overnight before applying the spray. Apply the sealer, allowing ample time between coats for the
acrylic to dry. Please Note:
This process will tend to stiffen the printed fabric. You may wish to test a small print
before treating your entire project.
- Dry
Cleaning: You may dry clean your project if you have stitched the
fabric sheets onto the project. You may hand stitch or machine
stitch. If you used any glues or
paints to adorn your project, check with the manufacturer to determine if
they can be dry cleaned.
- Do
not display in direct sunlight
- Place
your iron on a high dry setting.
This is usually the highest setting and may be marked “Cotton”,
but
Check your iron’s manual to confirm
the highest setting. Position image on muslin square. Place iron on image and hold for 5 seconds. While applying heat, do not move iron and do
not apply any steam. You may need to
position the iron a couple of times until entire image has been ironed on. You may hand stitch or machine stitch. It is important that proper heat penetrates all the way through
the image and muslin square. If not enough
heat is applied, the image may appear to be adhered but will begin to loosen at
the edges in time. If you do not plan to stitch the fabric sheets onto the
project, we strongly suggest you treat the fabric sheet edges with fabric paint
to ensure they stay down.
