    Hello and thanks for video. Shortly after you added the 505 temp adhesive you had another piece of material and said "shiny side down" but you did not say what that medium with the shiny side was. I think it's the glue but it's not clear what you were talking about other than the shiny side touches the thread. Thank you.

    Just a quick tip, to prevent the heatpress ghosting that we see, spray it with water and that ghosting box will go away.

      Yes, true. If I have to, I use a light damp sponge and it comes right off. Once the shirt cools down the marks go away.

    I found your link for the adhesive. Is it the 965 sheet? We are presently working on an order for patches on a Richardson 309 hat. We used Twill fabric and Ultra Bond, Heat N Bond adhesive. The patches won't stay adhered. We took the hats to another company that does hats to use their heat press. Their press wasn't a nice one and creased the hat. So, we are now going to try Fabric Fusion to glue them on. We have no idea why these hats and/or patches with this adhesive is not working. Any helpful advice appreciated. Thanks.

      Hello, great question, You can embroider directly on a shirt, but sometimes a customer wants to order patches and place the patches on their own different garments. You can use a Cricut and make the patches as an applique, but I dont think you can do the final cut with a cutter. You'll have to use something like a laser for the final patch cut.

    @romeraHi, I have a curious question. Obviously this was to show us how to make patches, but, would you do this for all these jobs when, To me, it seems like I would just embroidery them directly to the shirt. Is this so you can line up the patches on the garment easier? or why did you do it if I may ask. reason I also ask is, im learning, and if I want to do multiple of the same product, I am worried that the logo might not show up in the same spot each time. In this patch case, you could just put the patch where it goes, per your instruction trifold, and then each shirt after do the same so they all match identically. I will lastly add that I may not be pressing a button on my TC1501 that "centers" or "set base point" as I would call it on my sticker printing machines. Thank you for the video, hope to hear back.

    I did the burning with a lighter, but the white edge I want to get rid of looks yellowish/burnt. I did the exact same thing as you did-not leaving the lighter at the same spot over time. Is it supposed to be like that, or did I do anything wrong? How can I fix it? Thanks!

      Its a little tricky with white thread. Ive used a butane lighter (the one plumbers use), it works better for me better.

      It could have been 3 types of backing. There’s the type that is sew and heat press. If so you should be good. If its heat press only then it’s not made for embroidery.

      My pressure was pretty high on the heat press. It was flatten and stiff in that area, a day later the shirt was back normal. You can rub a damp sponge if the creases stay.

    by watching this video I am going to give up patch making , according to Mr. Romero , it takes 4-5 hrs to make 15 pieces. In order to see any profit I have to sell these for appx $26.00 each. I cant find such market, I have seen some complicated patches for around $3.00 to 5.00. not a good venture.

    • @RomeroThreads
      @RomeroThreads  3 роки тому +1

      Good observation. Lets look at the numbers 13,000 stitches ran at 750 stitches per minute multiplied 15 times puts you in the range of 4-5 hours. Successful shops that specialize in patches have multi-head machines so knocking high quantities of the same design is no problem. Somebody with 1 head maybe cant compete with somebody with 6 or 12 heads. Thats when you see dirt cheap prices for patches, the only small details is you have to order large quantities. There of course are ways to minimize thread count and speed up the process to make a profit, thats of course planning and preparation. I cant comment if you can make a profit or not, since I don't know how many heads you have and how good your designs are.
