Patches are a great way to personalize items for your customers and give it a unique touch. Great for use on camo and jean jackets, t-shirts and t-shirt sleeves, shoes (tongue), trucker hats, tote bags, cosmetic bags, and more.
These patches are embroidered and have a heat seal backing on them so no sewing is required. Just press and go. A heat press is recommended to press these.

Pressing Instructions
A heat press is recommended to apply all transfers and vinyl. Your press should heat evenly and at accurate temperature for best results. Use of an infrared temperature gun will ensure your press is at the correct temp. We do not recommend use of home irons or Cricut easy press.
*Sublimation Transfers
-400 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 to 60 seconds.
-Peel – Hot. Use of butcher or parchment paper is recommended so the ink doesn’t transfer to your press and/or other items. Place on top of the transfer.
-Pressure – depends on the item – general pressing instructions are listed below
- garments – sublimation should be applied to light colored polyester fabrics using light to medium light pressure. 100% poly will yield the best and most vibrant colors. 50% and higher can be used but will give a more vintage look. A pressing pillow can be used to ensure even pressure.
- hard substrates – these items are poly coated so you can sub on them. Medium to medium hard pressure is normal
*Screenprint Transfers
-No teflon sheets, covers, or pressing pillows should be used.
-325 degrees Fahrenheit for 7 seconds
-Pressure – HIGH (8-9 manual, 60PSI automatic)
-Peel – Hot. Peel slowly to ensure the transfer is fully adhered. If it is not, stop peeling and lay the paper back down and adjust the item position. Adjust your pressure and press for another 7 seconds.
*Rhinestone Transfers
-No teflon sheets, covers, or pressing pillows should be used.
-325 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds
-Pressure – MEDIUM
-Peel – Cold. After pressing, remove from heat press and allow to cool completely. Slowly remove the carrier sheet. Turn item inside out and press again for 5 seconds.
*Vinyl Transfers

-325 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds
