Begin by setting your iron to a medium-high heat setting, making sure it’s suitable for the fabric of the shirt to avoid any damage.

While the iron heats up, lay the shirt on a flat, hard surface like an ironing board or table to ensure a smooth, wrinkle-free area for the patch application.

Carefully position the patch in the desired spot on the shirt, ensuring it’s centered and aligned properly before proceeding to the next step.

Place a thin cloth over the patch to protect both the fabric and the patch design. Once the cloth is in place, firmly press the heated iron onto the patch area for a full 30 seconds, ensuring even pressure is applied throughout.

This will help the adhesive on the patch bond securely to the fabric, creating a strong attachment.

After applying heat to the patch, allow the shirt to cool completely before handling it further. This cooling period helps the adhesive set properly, ensuring a strong bond between the patch and the fabric.

This step prepares the back of the fabric for the final round of heat application, securing the patch more effectively.

With the shirt now turned inside out, place it back on a flat, sturdy surface. Using the same medium-high heat setting, press the iron firmly on the backside of the patch for 30 seconds.

Ensure you cover the entire area evenly to secure the patch from behind, reinforcing the adhesive bond. After 30 seconds, remove the iron and allow the fabric to cool slightly before checking if the patch is fully attached.
