How do you prevent iron-on transfers from peeling off fabric?
If you did the transfer, you need to make sure that your iron is hot enough to adhere the transfer to the fabric. If it begins to peel off, there are commercial adheasives you can use to glue it back on. You can check out your local craft or fabric store for those. After you have applied your transfer, the best way to protect it is by handwashing while the item is turned inside-out. Also, do not use the dryer as this well fade and crack your transfer once your garment is washed.
Follow the directions on the tranfer and when washing and drying, turn the apparel inside out. Some transfers say to wash the item first for best adhesion. The fabric also makes a difference (cotton, polyester, blends) Check the transfer directions.
