Applying Labels

33

■

Labels are made from non-toxic 
materials; however, attached labels are 
stiff, and may rub or scratch the skin if 
direct contact occurs.

■

Labels are dry-cleanable and machine 
washable.

■

Keep the label length short (up to about 
half the width of the iron soleplate). 
Labels that are too long may be difficult 
to attach or may look distorted due to 
the expansion and contraction of the 
fabric.

■

Trimming the corners of the label before 
attaching it will prevent it from peeling 
easily.

■

If a label does peel, it can be re-attached 
by ironing; however, it may not adhere as 
securely to the fabric.

■

When attaching a label to fabric that may 
be frequently washed or dry-cleaned, it is 
recommended that the label be sewn on.

■

When using a steam iron, turn the steam 
off when ironing on the label.

■

Once a label is attached, it cannot be 
easily removed. 

■

Never clean the labels with chemicals or 
solvents such as benzine, thinner, or 
alcohol. Otherwise, the print on the label 
may become faint or distorted.

■

If labels are exposed to direct sunlight for 
long periods of time, yellowing may 
occur.

■

Labels do not adhere to non-fabric 
materials such as paper or leather.

■

When using bleach or spot detergent, 
make sure you test it in advance.
