How do I apply this cloth to a t-shirt? Can I wash this?

It can not be machine washed. That will ruin the chalk finish. But I have applied it to many surfaces using Velcro dots

They're cloth, almost like tshirt material so if you really wanted to, you could run then through the washing machine and try to use them again. I have not done that just because it takes so long to get enough to add to the wash and to have to keep them around until you're ready to wash them. If you're buying for a gift, I would go with regular cheapy trusted patches. If you are OK with holding on to dirty patches until you are ready to wash them and are OK with the extra work, buy these. They're no better than regular patches though besides the fact that they can be washed.

I have to inform you outright that I am not knowledgeable about fabrics. Having said that, it is a combination of "suede-like" or flocked material. If I were to choose what material I would use in making it, I think this is it. After each use, I would brush it with the cloth lint brusher to make it look like new again. I understand they came up with a protective sleeve that you can wash. So far, I have not found the need for that yet.

I would just put it in the wash by itself on gentle cycle with regular soap and hot water, then lay it flat to dry on a towel. Do not put in dryer.

Not sure how much this helps, but this was purchased for Halloween. So the weather was cold, and clothes were worn underneath. It's very similar to the fabric of a vinyl table cloth. If you get dirt on it, just wipe it off with a damp towel or sponge. The material is not "breathable" so I might suggest to hang it outside to get fresh air. Or spray it with a cleaning solution and then wipe it down. I hope this somewhat helps.

I would definitely pre-shrink the t-shirts as much as possible before using them in a t-shirt quilt, but I have successfully used Heat N Bond on many stretch materials with great success, including with stretch cotton jersey which is what many commercial t-shirts are made of. The shirt I created from scratch with a Heat N Bond shape on the front of it as a decoration made it through the wash just fine.

Hello, Not good for t shirts, however, you can cut a design, weed out the copy, apply to t shirt, as a stencil, apply fabric paint, let dry, remove vinyl , and there it is your design on a shirt, take your time , test it on a old shirt first, copy will need to be a good size , small text probly wont get a good result, and Good luck ,I hope this helped.

I use spray cleaner and paper towel. I wouldn't put this in the washing machine as I think the material may come apart.

I think it works better with a clean cloth. I use a white tshirt. I also so used the micro cloth but still prefer the undershirt!! I love this product for my stainless appliances!!

Although you may need a large capacity washer or go to a Laundromat, you can wash this blanket just as you do your clothes. I've washed mine and it comes out just fine. Pop it in the dryer and it comes out looking great.

have done it on fabric, but not washed it. I have read elsewhere that it does not respond very well to repeated washing. I know they sell sunprint fabric, tho, so maybe also tshirts already coated with the chemicals.

You can wash the item after you make it. I have a tee-shirt I did over a year ago that still looks good. It's faded a bit, but hey-it is tie dye.

Actually, you can wash it. Just wash it with some mild soap. rinse, let it air dry really really dry and then to get it back to the way it was, dust it wit talcum powder. over the trash and shake. If you have a kid that may lick or suck it, I would try it with cornstarch, instead.

I just rinse it in the sink or throw it in the washer on delicate and DO NOT dry it with a dryer sheet. Don't know if it would hurt it, but all my other microfiber things say don't use a dryer sheet so I don't use it on this either...:) Hope that helps!!!

When I bought this cheesecloth I bought two batches for making ricotta cheese. I still have plenty and have not tried to wash it. So, I really cannot answer the question. However, as a suggestion, I would wash a small portion and see how it works. Sorry I could not be of more help.

You can use almost anything. I used an old, clean t-shirt. Just make sure that whatever it is you use doesn't leave behind any fibers. I think that Kleenex or paper towels may be a bad idea for that reason.

You'd just need to bleach the bottom part of the shirt before applying the dye. I'd recommend bleaching it, washing, drying, and then starting the dying process.
