4. Kullanım Talimatları

Follow these steps to effectively heat and mold your Bosal Heat Moldable Plus interfacing.

4.1. Heating Methods

The material softens with heat, allowing it to be shaped. Choose one of the following heating methods:

4.1.1. Iron Method

1. Set your iron to the lowest heat setting (e.g., synthetic or silk setting). Avoid high heat initially to prevent scorching or excessive stickiness.
2. Place the Bosal Heat Moldable Plus on a heat-resistant surface. If fusing to fabric, place the fabric on top of the interfacing.
3. Apply the iron to the material for approximately 15-20 saniye. For fusing, use a pressing cloth between the iron and your fabric.
4. Carefully lift the iron and test a small area for pliability. The material should feel soft and flexible. If it is not soft enough, apply heat for a few more seconds.
5. Avoid overheating, as this can make the material overly sticky or difficult to handle.

4.1.2. Heat Gun or Hair Dryer Method

1. Hold the heat gun or hair dryer a few inches above the Bosal Heat Moldable Plus.
2. Move the heat source continuously and evenly over the surface of the material.
3. Observe the material as it softens. This usually takes a few seconds.
4. Once pliable, proceed to the molding process.

4.2. Molding Process

Once the material is sufficiently heated and pliable:

• Quickly but carefully shape the material into your desired form. You can use your hands (with caution for heat), or shaping tools.
• Work efficiently, as the material will begin to cool and stiffen relatively quickly.
• For complex shapes, you may need to reheat sections as you work.

4.3. Cooling and Setting

After molding:

• Hold the material in its desired shape until it cools completely. As it cools, it will regain its stiffness and hold the new form.
• İzin vermek ample time for full cooling and setting before further handling or adding embellishments.

5. Bakım ve Saklama

Proper care and storage will help maintain the quality and usability of your Bosal Heat Moldable Plus.

• Temizlik: If the material becomes soiled, gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.

• Katlamaktan Kaçının: Do not fold the material sharply, as this can create permanent creases that are difficult to remove.

6. Sorun Giderme

Karşılaşabileceğiniz yaygın sorunlara yönelik çözümler şunlardır:

• Material not molding or softening sufficiently:
  • Ensure your heat source is at the correct temperature.
  • Increase the duration of heat application slightly.
  • Ensure heat is applied evenly across the area you wish to mold.
• Material becomes too soft or sticky:
  • You may be applying too much heat or for too long. Reduce heat duration or temperature.
  • Allow the material to cool slightly before handling if it's excessively sticky.
• Creases or wrinkles appear:
  • Reheat the affected area gently and flatten it out. Then, remold as desired.
  • Store the material properly to prevent new creases.
• Fusing to fabric is not strong:
