FAQs

What fabrics can I use Bondaweb on?

Bondaweb is suitable for a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, linen, blends, raffia, cardboard, and leather (at lower temperatures). Always test on a scrap of fabric first.

How do I wash items with Bondaweb appliques?

Wash the items according to the fabric care instructions. It is recommended to stitch around the applique for extra security. Avoid high heat during washing and drying.

Can I use Bondaweb on delicate fabrics?

Use Bondaweb with caution on delicate fabrics. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage the fabric. Lower temperatures are recommended.

What type of stitch should I use to secure the appliques?

A zigzag stitch is recommended for securing the appliques. This provides a strong and durable finish.

How long should I iron the Bondaweb?

Iron the Bondaweb for about 5 seconds onto the fabric to bond it, then iron with the damp cloth and base fabric for about 10 seconds, step by step, making sure to apply even pressure.

What if the bond is not strong enough?

Make sure you're using the correct temperature and pressure when ironing. Ensure that the fabric is clean and dry. Consider stitching around the applique for extra security.

Can I use Bondaweb for leather projects?

Yes, Bondaweb can be used on leather, but it is important to use a lower temperature setting to avoid damaging the leather. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Troubleshooting

Applique not adhering properly.

Ensure the iron is at the correct temperature for the fabric. Use a damp cloth and apply even pressure for the recommended time. Make sure you are using enough heat. Check your iron's steam setting. Some irons need the steam setting off.

Paper backing is difficult to remove.

Score the paper backing gently with a pin or craft knife if necessary. Ensure that you have ironed the Bondaweb onto the fabric correctly.

Edges of the applique are lifting.

Increase the ironing time slightly. Consider stitching around the edges of the applique with a zigzag stitch for added security.
