Iron-on labels for clothes
How do I fix my iron-on labels for clothes?
What to do if my iron-on labels for clothes become unstuck? 🙁
The adhesion quality of our iron-on labels is guaranteed 10 years. Properly fixed, they cannot become unstuck. They have been designed to withstand washing machine and tumble dryer sessions.
In addition, the iron-on labels that have become unstuck keep theirr adhesion quality. Do keep them as they can be stuck back on! In most cases, a label becomes unstuck because the temperature of the iron at the time of fixing was too low. If the back of the label is still shiny (that will be the glue) that means that when the label was ironed on, the temperature of the iron was too low and the glue did not melt enough.
Here are a few tips on how-to re stick your labels for clothes :
I use a classic standard iron:
- I increase the T° of my iron (max T°)
- I position the label on my garment
- I cover the label with the greaseproof paper supplied
- I apply my hot iron with a downward pressure
- During 5 seconds (without moving)
- I renew the process if necessary
- I let the greaseproof paper cool down before removing it
A well stuck label shows the fabric fibre pattern through. From then on, the label should not come off.
If despite these tips, you still have difficulties to fix your labels, do contact us.
I use a steam generator iron:
- I make sure to switch off the steam function of my steam generator iron as it cools down the sole of the iron and therefore prevents a good adhesion of the label on the garment
- I make sure that the heat function of my iron is not deactivated
- I increase the T° of my iron (T° max)
- I position my label on the garment (directly onto the fabric)
- I cover the label with the sheet of greaseproof paper supplied
- I apply my hot iron with a downward pressure
- During 5 seconds (without moving)
- I renew the process if necessary
- I let the greaseproof paper cool down before removing it
A well stuck label shows the fabric fibre pattern through. From then on, the labels should not come off.
If despite these tips, you still have difficulties to fix your labels, we recommend that you use a classic iron (which has a higher temperature capacity).
How to remove an iron-on label from my clothes ?
Our iron-on labels have been designed to remain on the clothes they are marking. Their adhesion is guaranteed for 10 years. There is no universal solution to remove them.
However, here’s a method used by some of our customers to remove the labels when you are done with the clothes:
- Cover the label you want to remove with a piece of kitchen foil, then heat up the foil and therefore the label, with your iron. If you use a steam generator, make sure to have the steam function on and release a lot of the steam . Then carefully peel off the piece of foil (BEWARE it will be hot), the label should be stuck or at least partially to the piece of foil. We cannot guarantee 100% success of this method, as our first criteria when designing the labels were for them to remain stuck for years.
Should you not have much success with this method, do not hesitate to send us an email to info@mine4sure.com, en nous précisant bien la quantité d’étiquettes à effacer. Nous vous ferons alors parvenir des étiquettes vierges à fixer par-dessus.
