Pressing Instructions

To ensure your patch looks professionally pressed every time, follow these four simple steps.
- 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 25 seconds at 335°F with 50-60 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 25 seconds at 335°F with 70-80 PSI or hard pressure.
- For Hats: For PVC Rubber patches, top and bottom heat is REQUIRED for the patch to correctly adhere to the hat. Top heat only will burn the rubber, even if a teflon sheet is used to cover it.

PVC rubber patches are typically waterproof which means they can withstand exposure to moisture without significant damage. Many custom PVC rubber patches are designed with additional waterproofing features, such as sealed edges or a protective layer over the design. These measures help prevent water from seeping into the patch and potentially causing damage to the underlying fabric or design.
While PVC patches are generally water-resistant, they may not be completely waterproof. For example extended exposure to water or submersion could eventually lead to water penetration if there are gaps or vulnerabilities in the patch’s structure.
The level of waterproofing can also depend on how the PVC patch is attached or incorporated into an item. For example, if a patch is sewn onto a garment, there may be tiny puncture holes in the fabric that could allow water to pass through.
To maintain the water-resistant properties of custom PVC rubber patches, it’s essential to follow care instructions provided, avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals, excessive heat or prolonged submersion in water.
