Benefits

Product Care

• Machine wash & dry finished projects without fabric softners or dry clean.
• You may leave edges unfinished, but if you choose to sew through, make sure that the Steam-A-Seam 2® is fully fused with a steam iron - 30+ sec and let set before sewing.
• When laundering, avoid using fabric softner. Fabric softner chemicals erode the fusible web over time.

Tips for Using Steam-A-Seam 2 with Wool

To use Steam-A-Seam 2 or Lite Steam-A-Seam 2 with wool, or any dense and sensitive material, you need to iron press both the front and back of your design. If available, using a steam iron is recommended. Since the "wool" iron setting is a low temperature, you must iron press for a longer amount of time, until the Steam-A-Seam webbing is properly fused. Please use caution as it is possible to burn wool fibers - do not iron press in one area for too long. Press for 45+ seconds and let it set to cool.
