Hi mate - we have videos that show both how to remove vinyl and flock namesets. I suspect you are referring to a flock nameset - best video for you is.....

This one - ua-cam.com/video/6kOGseR5rAY/v-deo.html

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the question. Has the colour run due to the hot water or something?

@@wefixkitsyes, when the vinyl from the sponsor stain the rest of the shirt

Hmm - this can be a very challenging stain to remove. Have you tried to soak it in Napisan (or similar). If you'd like to send me some pics on either twitter or Insta - I'd be happy to have a look

Hmmm - possibly, if you can share a picture on either twitter or Insta - I can take a look

Hi there - are the rings and the B standard vinyl?

@wefixkits I'm not actually sure. I think it feels more plastic. Like they are raised from the badge. 3D like. It's similar to the plastic you get on Air Max Trainers the the material areas. That say Air or a Nike Swoosh

Are you able to send us some picture on either twitter or Insta please?

@wefixkits yeah. I will go look it out and send it on. No problem. Thanks for replying. Very much appreciated.

I use this one - amzn.to/3Vo3S0B

Hi mate - by stains, do you mean the oily smear stain that VLR sometimes leaves? If so - maybe really cut down on the amount of VLR you use, mop up any excess,l and keep rubbing any excess VLR with cotton pad to prevent it leaving a stain. Our vinyl removal video should help a bit more too ua-cam.com/video/9tH5EHp9bac/v-deo.htmlsi=09pyM7Cy-IF88VbE

@@wefixkits Yes exactly, it's that cloud like stain VLR leave. From my experience, on some shirts, it dries and goes away, on others if becomes permanent. I do try to rub the excess but I don't feel like it helps that much. Do you use VLR on white shirts? Thanks for your reply!

Yes that stain is very common. It's caused by dirt and grime being released by the solvent. They can be very stubborn stains to remove, but the best thing to do is work on removing them as quickly after they have formed as possible. VLR (sometimes isopropyl alcohol) will dissolve them temporarily, then I put some Swarfega soap on the area and either wash straight away or napisan soak then wash. I'll be doing a video on this soon. Good luck!!

@@wefixkitsamazing tips! Thanks a lot for helping us out! Also I can’t wait for that video. It’s gonna change my life 😂

Good stuff mate. Napisan will defo give it a clean, but for a thick flock number - I would use Alcohol. Check out our video on how to remove a flock nameset

@@wefixkits Cheers, I wish I'd read this reply before buying and trying the Napisan today lol. Still, it smells a bit nicer... Can't find the video though.

Haha - well yeah, at least it's a bit cleaner. Watch this video to see how to remove a flock nameset 🤙 ua-cam.com/video/6kOGseR5rAY/v-deo.html

Hi there. The heatpress I use in this video is 20"x15" - 50cm x 38cm

@@wefixkits Thanks, man! Another question... How you print and cut the numbers and letters? I want to star a restore service in Portugal...

Watch our videos meu irmao. We take you through how to do everything.

Hi mate - thanks for your message! It really makes our day when we get comments like these! Yes of course - I am planning to do this within the next couple of videos

@@wefixkits Amazing! Please keep up the uploads! Love from Canada

Hi mate - thanks alot, love it when people get value from our content! Ah yes, those Chevrolet sponsors are a pain. No you need to watch my video entitled "Discover the secret of removing vinyl namesets" - I know it's not a nameset, but the process is the same. In the video I use a special tool that I have made, if you need a set then let me know and I'll get them sent out. Maybe drop me a note on either Twitter or Insta and I can help further. Haha - yes, I was indeed at kidbrooke DL! I'm sure I'd recognise you if I saw a photo! 🤙🤙

That's very kind of you to say, thank you!

​@wefixkits are there some Affordable heat press machines you can suggest?

I bought them. I have some left (kane, grealish and Henderson) would you like a set?

@@wefixkits sure I would love a set!

Can you drop me a DM (@wefixkits) either on twitter or Insta and we can sort. Cheers

So you have this exact Liverpool shirt? Well repairing the flock will likely not last - if you drop us a note on twitter or insta, we can go through some options?

@@wefixkits same Shirt, i dont use Twitter, whats your Instagram?

I would probably use these - amzn.to/44K8Acn

Hi there - yes of course, we will do this. Believe it or not - this is the third request today for the same thing. The trick to not get it over and over, is to put the shirt in to soak in Napisan (or similar) once the additional VLR / solvent has been added but before the additional VLR has evaporated. Make sense?

Thanks mate - appreciate it. I refer to "smear" marks in my videos. My advice is:- 1. Get shirt as clean as possible before hand - ideally Napisan soak 2. Use VLR sparingly i.e. with cotton pads rather than pouring directly on 3. If you have them, you need another solvent I.e. VLR or alcohol - to dissolve them, but they will only remain dissolved while the solvent is still a liquid. You need to put the shirt either straight in the wash (once you can see the marks have gone) or in to soak. Make sense?

The smears I've got are from the VLR. I've applied it without cleaning the shirt beforehand which, like you've mentioned in the video, has brought up the dirt and smeared

Understood. If the smear marks have had heat applied it can make them even more stubborn, but going with the chemistry around smear marks - you need another solvent to "melt" them before then cleaning. The steps in my initial comment should work 🙏🤞

@@wefixkits spot on thanks mate 👍🏻

Thanks mate - appreciate it. The mark you mention, I refer to as "smear" marks in my videos. My advice is:- 1. Get shirt as clean as possible before hand - ideally Napisan soak 2. Use VLR sparingly i.e. with cotton pads rather than pouring directly on 3. If you have them, you need another solvent I.e.

@@wefixkits thanks a lot for this advice, stocked up on some napisan ahead of a weekend of soaking 👍

Thank you so much for your kind words! They mean so much to us! Ok, good shout around the intro / outro. Let me talk to our production team (the wife) 😜🤙🤣

@wefixkits Just when I thought the days of getting jumpscares and rickrolled were done... Hahaha! I kid, I kid 😝 Oh! The wife is the one-woman crew in the editing side of things. Oops! 😅 Still, I like the random touch of humour / stock videos put into such instructional videos. Does make for a more varied and entertaining view overall. A nice touch there. Tell her that, too! 👍🏻 Will reach out to you shortly on twitter (most probably, with the same handle) regarding some help I need. Hopefully I can tap on your expertise 🫡

Thanks mate - we have tweaked the intro/outro for this weekends video. Let me know if it's still uncomfortable. For sure, give us a shout and I'll try to help - no problem. 🤙🤙

Please feel free to share it to your hearts content 🤙🤙

Thanks so much, means alot to us. In terms of heatpress, all depends on your budget. I started with this one and it's still going

amzn.to/44BkoO4

Go for it! Let me know how you get on. If the adhesive doesn't reactivate, there are a couple of other options.

@@wefixkits Is it possible to order a shirt restoration from you guys?

Thank you Liam, very nice of you to say so. I guess it's just one of life's injustices 🤷🫣🤣. Feel free to tell your friends about our channel and let us know if you have any requests.

Thank you! Much appreciated! We have two - one is 38x38, the other is 50x38. I would always recommend getting as big as you can to fit your budget.

🤙🤙🤙

Yes sure! I have done some videos on how to do it using Silhouette studio with a silhouette cameo 4 - give me a shout if you need some more tips

Hi mate - thanks for that! Means alot to us! For VLR smears, ultimately you will need to use a solvent to dissolve them again before washing them off. Why don't you drop us a message @wefixkits on either twitter or insta, send some pics of both the smears and the smudged sponsor - and I'll see how I can help you

@@wefixkits thank you! Loving these videos - just getting started with a few shirt repairs and seem to have caught the bug! Appreciate the response!

Careful! It's addictive! 🤣🤣

Hey mate - thanks so much for your compliments, it really means alot to us! Now, for your shirt - accidents happen! If you want to add us on twitter or Instagram @wefixkits - send me some pics and I'll see how we can help.

Really pleased you found our channel, we have some videos I think that you will find useful!

Why thank you!! 🤙🤙

@wefixkits keep them coming great and very helpful 👍

Much obliged! We will keep them coming if you promise to keep watching them 😎😜 Let us know if there is anything you'd like us to cover.

@@wefixkits show how to make the correct size of logo and the software to use to make it

Ah mate - that's very kind of you to say so! I searched too when I started out, and there is very little. Some methods are closely guarded but I prefer to share the love as it's such a great hobby to do. Let us know if you would like us to cover anything specific in future videos.

Thank you mate - comments like this make our day! Let us know if you have any questions or requests 🤙🤙

@@wefixkits i am glad it did! Watched all of your videos today. Waiting for more content🔥👍🏻

New video will be going live on Sunday 🤙🤙

I would use acetone on a cotton pad and then rinse with warm water and fairy liquid

🤣🤣🤣 I know right! Defo gives better results.

Dedication to precision sounds much better than OCD! 🤣🤣🤙🤙

Why thank you! Glad it is useful to you. Let me know if you have any questions.

I can't get involved 🫣🤣🤣🤣

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it! Well, the lightbox (which is a light pad with a Pyrex glass tray upside down and on top of it) is perfect to be able to see where the letter is on the other side of the fabric so you know where to apply the solvent. Make sense?

The tool is something that I custom made as there was nothing else that did the job. I sell them for £13 Inc UK postage for a pair. Would you like a set?

I know right! We love the Norwich Home and Away that season!

Thank you for your message, it's exactly ones like this that make it all worth it. We believe that, as with all skills - if people want to learn - there should be a means and way of being able to do so. Whilst we do offer our our services, we would MUCH rather people watched our videos and learned how to do it themselves - the feeling of empowerment and achievement is immense! If you have any questions - feel free to ask us 🤙

Ah shucks! Don't embarrass me 🤣🤣🫣🫣😜😜

@@wefixkits 😂🤣

Sounds familiar mate. We have a video that shows you how to use VLR the best (important not to use alot and to let it evaporated slightly). You can send me some pics and I'll have a look if you like?

Thank you for watching it and taking the time to leave us a comment - it really makes a difference! If you have any questions or requests for future videos please let us know 🤙🤙

My gut feel is that both acetone or pure alcohol should do the trick. Go carefully though and whichever you use, use it sparingly and prob apply with a cotton bud. Let me know how you get on!! 🙏

Ah mate - I wished you had too!! Does said shirt still need work done on it now? Or you managed to fix it?

Ah thanks mate, that means alot to us! Please keep watching and let me know in the comments if you have any questions

This video shows that using a medium iron on some teflon / greaseproof paper - can remove the last residue marks. We have loads of instructional videos that go into more detail - check them out.

Always Alastair!

Hi there - thanks for your message. There is a link in the video description for all the items in the video

@wefixkits ok mate no worries, I will have a look.

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, we really appreciate it! It's funny you say that, as that's exactly what we were planning on doing! We were thinking of starting with United Newton Heath - what do you think?

Ah the Snowflake?! Yeah I love that shirt. Needs a bit of TLC to get it back looking good - maybe we can do a video on how we do it?

Sounds like a plan for sure, would definitely be good to see all these shirts getting there own personal video

Ok cool - we can certainly look to do that!
