On average, iron-on patches usually stick for up to 25 washes. Most of the time, this is enough for washing fabric. If you need a patch to last longer, you will need to sew it on to your clothing.

To know that your patch is iron-on and not sew on, you will be able to spot a shiny backing. Once ironed on, it then becomes adhesive and only becomes sticky once applied.

To keep your iron-on patch in place, we advise using an iron that is on the medium-hot setting. During the process, use a thin fabric to iron on the patch and press down hard on the fabric. Make sure you prevent the iron from slipping, so sticking does not occur, and repeat this for 2-3 minutes.

While you can wash iron-on patches, it's best you use cold water and avoid hot water. Moreover, when drying it, keep it away from a dry high heat as this will loosen the adhesive and cause it to fall off. Yet if you're looking to remove it, place the hot iron to a patch and peel it off the fabric.

Unfortunately, iron-on patches don't stick onto satin well and can damage the fabric. The best way to attach a patch to satin is by sewing it on. When doing so, you may need to cut out a window shape around your patch and a scrap piece of fabric to protect the satin.

You will want to preheat your iron to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you're using cotton, place it on the cotton setting for an average of 5 minutes and use it once it's hot. Before pressing down your iron, position the patch in the location you want. Next, use a thin cloth or a parchment of paper over your patch. Then iron over the top and watch the patch stick. Do note, if your clothing fabric is wool or is delicate, it's best to use a damp cloth.

To do this, you will need to press down the iron on a fusible patch on top of the silk or its hole. If you press down well enough, there is less of a chance of the silk scorching. You will need to hold the iron down based on the timeframe suggested by the manufacturer.
