After the backing tape has been removed, the transferred label may appear glossy. In
addition, some white spots may have appeared on the label if it was touched while the
backing tape was peeled off. These can be removed by ironing over the label with a
piece of cloth placed between the label and the iron.
Since the transferred label cannot be removed once it is applied, make all transfers with
care.
Washing:
Garments with transfer labels can be washed over 20 times if the label has been transferred
correctly. Normal biological and non-biological household detergents may be used.
The label may become discoloured if the garment is placed in bleach for an extended length
of time.
Be careful that hard objects such as buckles or buttons do not come into contact with the label
during the wash.
Do not dry clean garments which have had transfer labels applied.
Drying:
Garments with transfer labels may be dried either inside or outside out.
Do not tumble dry. The transfers will come off and may stick to other items of clothing.
Ironing:
Iron garments with transfers using normal temperature settings.
Be sure to place a piece of cloth between the iron and the label when you iron over it to pre-
vent the label from sticking to the iron.
The labels are non-toxic, however, please maintain the usual precautions, such as not placing
them in your mouth, etc.
Do not store the tape cassette in areas exposed to direct sunlight, high humidity or dust.
FABRIC TAPE
Fabric tape is used to attach a piece of fabric printed with your text onto garments using an
iron. After printing the text onto fabric tape and cutting off the label using scissors, place the
label on an ironed garment at the location where you wish to attach it in such a way that the
printed text can be read correctly. Cover the label with another piece of cloth and use an iron
set to a medium-high temperature (320 to 356 ˚F (160 to 180 ˚C)) to press down firmly for 10
to 15 seconds. For more details, refer to the instructions included with the fabric tape cassette.
