How to Use Korbond Hemming Tape Black 4.5M

Materials Needed

  • Korbond Hemming Tape Black 4.5M
  • Iron
  • Ironing board
  • Scissors
  • Measuring tape or ruler
  • Fabric or garment to hem

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Fabric

  • Lay the fabric or garment flat on the ironing board.
  • Measure the desired length of the hem using the measuring tape or ruler.
  • Fold the fabric up to the measured line to create the hem and press it with the iron to create a crease.

Step 2: Cut the Hemming Tape

  • Measure the length of the hem you need to secure.
  • Cut a strip of Korbond Hemming Tape to match the length of the hem.

Step 3: Apply the Hemming Tape

  • Unfold the creased hem and place the hemming tape between the fabric layers along the crease.
  • Ensure the hemming tape is evenly distributed along the length of the hem.

Step 4: Secure the Hem

  • Set the iron to the appropriate temperature for the fabric type.
  • Carefully press the iron onto the hem where the tape is placed, holding it for a few seconds to activate the adhesive.
  • Move the iron along the hem, ensuring the tape adheres completely to the fabric.

Step 5: Finalize the Hem

  • Allow the fabric to cool before moving it to ensure the adhesive sets properly.
  • Check the hem to ensure it is secure and even.

Additional Tips

  • Test the hemming tape on a small, inconspicuous area of the fabric to ensure it doesn’t damage or discolor the material.
  • Use a pressing cloth if the fabric is delicate to protect it from direct heat.
