Description

How to Use Wundaweb Hemming Tape

Materials Needed

• Wundaweb Hemming Tape
• Iron
• Ironing board or flat surface
• Cloth or pressing cloth
• Scissors

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Fabric

• Lay the fabric on a flat surface.
• Ensure that the edges to be hemmed are clean and free from frays.
• If necessary, trim any excess threads or uneven edges with scissors.

Step 2: Measure and Cut the Tape

• Measure the length of the fabric edge that needs hemming.
• Cut a piece of Wundaweb Hemming Tape to match this length.

Step 3: Position the Tape

• Place the Wundaweb Hemming Tape between the folded hem of the fabric.
• Ensure the tape is aligned properly along the entire edge.

Step 4: Iron the Hem

• Set your iron to the appropriate heat setting for the fabric you are working with.
• Cover the hem with a cloth or pressing cloth to protect the fabric.
• Press the iron firmly over the hem for about 10-15 seconds, allowing the tape to bond the fabric together.
• Move the iron along the hem, continuing to press down firmly. Do not slide the iron as this might shift the tape.

Step 5: Check and Finish

• Allow the hem to cool for a few minutes.
• Check to ensure the hem is securely bonded.
• If necessary, repeat the ironing process on any sections that are not fully secured.

Tips for Best Results

• Test on a small piece of fabric first to ensure compatibility.
• Use a pressing cloth to prevent the iron from sticking to the tape or fabric.
• Ensure the iron is at the correct temperature; too hot may damage the fabric.
