    I tend to iron them and then sew around the edges anyway, the "belt-and-suspenders" approach.

    Love the “preheat the material” tip before applying the patch - thanks Russ!

    my bf walked into the room and said you do bikes and i was like but he does sewing because youre doing iron on patches anyway, it was the weird cross over that we didnt know we needed :D

    Use a damp cloth! The steam will give a better result, prevent damage, increase steam, as soon as cool, ready to go!

    Tiniest iron award!! I definitely need to bling out some bags, thanks for the ironing tips 😉

    Thanks for the vid. I was expecting to see a lot of iron-on videos, but most are sewing. I definitely would not have thought to do all the steps you did, so I'm glad I watched!

    This is super useful. I’ve got a bunch of patches but I had no idea how to iron them on! Thank you.

    Seeing Russ with a mini iron is by far the best thing I've seen all day!

    Ha! No wonder I've never had good luck with iron on patches! Way more steps than I woulda thought.

      Right! The ones I ordered didn’t even come with instructions.

    The adhesive may not hold for very long on some materials. Once you iron on the patch, a person who does simple alterations should be able to sew the perimeter. Your dry cleaner usually will have someone they farm this out to. Like any of us have a dry cleaner anymore, but you know what I mean. Anyway, it will be surprisingly inexpensive.

      My husband and I have a dry cleaners, I wonder what that says about us 🤔😅

    Nice. I have one of your patches and a bag I want it on but was a little nervous about doing it.

  • @shimmeringtrashpile

    Really great! I do often sew and iron because I’m not very good at either. 😁

  • @lesleykenwood2715

    I usually just hand sew them on, a bit of a pain. But I know they are secure.

    This was a great tutorial. You did a good job! Good-looking patches also. Who's the patch maker you guys use that's based in PA?

  • @mrjack8849
    @mrjack8849 Před 3 lety +5

    I have been applying patches to my tubes this way. No wonder why I kept going through tubes so fast. Only use the iron for 45 seconds.

    I've been meaning to ask this question forever: Really just wondering, what do Laura and Russ do with all their stickers and patches?! I do patches in the map case and stickers for tool boxes because I'm afraid of the iron, but sometimes a lucky sticker will end up on a bike.

    • @PathLessPedaledTV
      @PathLessPedaledTV  Před 3 lety +3

      Mostly post them on the wall for show. But stickers wind up on our cooler in the van.

    I emailed RoadRunner about ironing patches onto their Jammer bag (really like this bag). They told me that iron on patches don't last on Cordura for a long time. They recommended sewing it. I have an "outdoor sewing kit" with some stronger needles for thicker fabric. Please let us know how it lasts?

    Hey Russ! Did Walter have any specific warnings or tips for X-Pac? Cordura I'm confident with, but worried about melting that plasticky lightweight stuff!

    @TrulyMarcy Před rokem +2

    didn’t work so i just put the iron on the patch without anything in between, used steam, and it was on in 10 seconds. just pushed the iron down while holding it in place.

  • @nickporter3531
    @nickporter3531 Před 3 lety +2

    Better ask if I can use the iron 😆 Will they stick to waxed canvas or is sewing them on better for this?

  • @MsLovelyArie

      @sp33kafr33ka Před 3 lety +2

      I’ve added a bunch to an xpac swift zeitgeist. I added a stitch to each corner so I wouldn’t loose them in the elements. They take a lot of beating on flaps.

      It doesn't work well. I ended up sewing around the edges of the patches on my Carradice saddlebag.

    His instructions are a bit weak. For best results, iron for 3 rounds of:
    - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off
    - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off
    - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off
