Materials
Instructions of use
Although the use of FabPatch™ is very easy anytime, anywhere, remember a few things:
1. Peel the fabric from the liner and do not take the liner off completely.
2. Place the uncovered area to te desiderd place and then gently pull away the rest of the liner. Do not touch the adhesive! The grease on the fingertips will prevent the patch form attaching correctly.
3. If the hole is large, place another FabPatch™ or a small piece of fabric on the other side. If the hole is small you can pinch it together.
4. Rub the patch firmly with a blunt object for 1-2 minutes. 5. You are ready to go! See also the instruction video here.
Washing
Allow the adhesive to set for at least 3 days before the first wash. When the garment becomes dirty, air it out or wash it either in a washing machine or by hand, following the washing instructions, but not exceeding 40 degrees. Avoid using gall soap, bleach or fabric softener. Some laundry vinegar products may affect wash resistance. FabPatch™ also withstands tumble drying and ironing.
To be noted
FabPatch™ is suitable for most textiles. In coated or heavily chemically treated textiles, such as those containing softeners, the wash resistance may be weaker. Due to the large number of variables, an exact promise regarding wash resistance cannot be given. At its best, FabPatch™ can last for several years when attached, used, and washed. At the very least, it should withstand multiple washes without coming off. A slight fraying of the edges over time is characteristic for FabPatch™. If desired, the edges can be trimmed with clean scissors.
The smallest FabPatch™ is suitable, for example, on the opposite side or in small holes.
Store the product in a resealable bag. The bag is reusable.
FabPatch™ is recycled along with textile waste. Remember to recycle the packaging as well.
FabPatch™ is not recommended for textiles worn by children under 3 years due to its small size.
