to have the best experience using Fabri-Tac.
Fabric Types:
There are many different types of fabric available. From cotton
and cotton blends to high tech water proof materials. While it
works excellent on some, it may completely fail on others! For this
reason, we ask that you test the glue first before diving into your
project.
To save you some time, Fabri-Tac will not work on plastic coated
fabrics like patches, polyethylene or silicone coated fabrics. It was
designed to bond to the fabric’s fibers. Coated fabrics don’t allow
that to happen.
The best way to know if it will work is to test it first. If you don’t
have scraps, you can use this method: Apply a small drop in an
inconspicuous area of the fabric. Allow it to dry and try to peel it
off. If it comes off it will not work with that fabric.
Applying Fabric-Tac
Fabri-Tac is formulated to dry very quickly. It’s best to work in
areas no longer than 3”. Apply a 3” bead of glue and position the
items together quickly, but gently! Pressure is great when using
tape. When using a liquid glue, too much pressure will cause the
glue to soak into the fabric or come out the sides. The end result
will be a messy stiff piece of fabric.
To increase flexibility of the fabric bonded together, apply glue in
dots or wave pattern as shown below. Remember the 3” rule!
