How To Fix A Peeling Iron-On Transfer
Things Needed
-
Ironing board
-
Iron
-
Sheet of paper
Warning
Don't lay the whole iron on the transfer, and don't leave the iron on the peeling areas for longer than a few seconds at a time. The high heat could harm the garment and the transfer if left for too long.
A shirt with an iron-on transfer may be your favorite, but after repeated wearings and washing the iron-on may start to peel off at the edges. If you want to save your iron-on transfer, it's not hard, but it needs to be done quickly and carefully. Iron-on designs are made to be permanent, but over time the adhesive may not stick as well as it used to. Fix your iron-on before it is completely ruined and bring your garment back to its former glory.
Step 1
Heat an iron to a high heat setting.
Step 2
Place the garment on an ironing board, and place a piece of paper on top of the area of the transfer that is peeling off.
Step 3
Iron over the peeling transfer quickly, using only the edge of the iron.
Step 4
Repeat this procedure and keep checking the transfer until you notice it's sticking to the garment again.
