Instructions for Use:
For Embroidered Fabric:
- Remove any excess stabilizer.
- If desired, spray the right side of the fabric with a clear (non-flaking) starch.
- Place press cloth on ironing surface; set embroidery face-down onto press cloth.
- Press from back side, using steam and pressure where appropriate to smooth out wrinkles; the thickness of the press cloth will protect the embroidery's texture.
- Allow fabric to cool in place before lifting; if more pressing is needed, move embroidery to fresh area of press cloth.
Cloth Maintenance:
After many uses, the presscloth may become compressed or less effective. Starch buildup may also affect its efficacy:
- Refresh cloth by washing in warm water using only a mild detergent and no fabric softener (fabric softener will reduce its steam absorbency).
- Allow to air-dry; no not place in dryer.
