Pressing Instructions

Position Your Patch: Being that your patch will be pressed facing down, touching the bottom plate, you will first need to secure the patch to your garment with Thermal Tape (heat resistant tape) to ensure it stays in its desired location when being placed on your heat press.

Load Garment Onto Heat Press face down: Now that your patch is taped in place, flip the garment over and place onto the heat press so the patch is facing downwards and touching the lower plate. This makes it easier to melt the low-melt glue on the back of the patch so that the patch will adhere to your garment. The goal is to melt the low-melt glue on the back of the patch, not the visible portion of the patch you’ll see when it’s adhered to the garment.

Press: After laying the garment with the patch face down, lay a Protective Guard Sheet over it to protect your garment from the iron, then press for 20 seconds at 325°F with 70-80 PSI or hard pressure. After pressing, remove the garment from the press and allow it to cool for at least 30 seconds before removing the thermal tape. This allows the melted glue to solidify, thereby bonding it to your garment.

For Thicker Fabrics (Hoodies, Jackets, etc.): If after following these instructions, the patch isn’t adhering to your garment, it could be because the garment you’re using is made of thick material, such as a hoodie, jacket, etc. If this is the case, tape your patch to the garment and flip the garment inside out. Then, lay the garment onto the heat press so that the back of the patch is facing up. Lay a piece of parchment paper over the garment and press for 20 seconds at 325°F with 70-80 PSI or hard pressure.

Art Upload Recommendations

All file types accepted, vector files are always preferred, raster art should be at least 300 DPI.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and maintain the integrity of your patch, follow the care instructions below:

Washing: Turn the garment inside out before washing. Use cold or lukewarm water, select a gentle cycle, and a mild detergent. Avoid hot water, bleach, and fabric softeners to prevent weakening the adhesive and fabric. Patches from Star Stitch Promo are built to last up to 50 wash cycles.

Drying: Air dry the garment or use a low heat setting on your dryer. Avoid high heat as it can cause the patch to shrink or the adhesive to weaken.

FAQ

What Are Genuine Leather Patches?

Genuine leather patches are small pieces of leather that can be used for branding or enhancement of different types of items like clothing or accessories.

Our genuine custom leather patches are unique embellishments created by using laser technology to etch intricate designs, patterns, or text onto pieces of authentic leather. This type of custom patch combines the timeless elegance of leather with precision laser engraving, resulting in a distinctive and visually appealing product.

A digital design or pattern is programmed into the laser, which then precisely removes the top layer of the leather, leaving behind the etched design. This process allows for incredible detail and precision, as the laser can create fine lines and intricate artwork on the leather surface.
