About this deal
Applying Velcro to fabric requires minimal skill, minimal effort, and minimal time (which, in a nutshell, is its beauty). Once you’ve removed the Velcro strip from the fabric, apply a citrus adhesive remover to the peeled part. If this is the case, you may need to reinforce the adhesive with stitching, nails, staples, or a stronger adhesive (again, the supporting technique you use will need to be tailored to suit the surface in question). Might be the fabric although it didn’t come off when used but I cut it too short and thought I’d try to replace it rather than extend my piece and I was able to remove it . Before you make your purchase, check the pack and make sure the Velcro is intended for use on fabric: anything else will inevitably end in disappointment and several dollars’ worth of wasted money.

Getting the original velcro off - the more difficult as it stitched on as well as glued - completed, the replacement went on very easily and I was careful to follow the guidance on allowing 24hrs before use.My fingers are crossed, but in the meantime, will need more for another well-used garment, my RAF Overalls. Switch on the glue gun and let the glue heat (unless you want a sticky mess, don’t apply before the glue is hot and free-flowing). Fortunately, there’s a range of Velcro adhesives on the market built for that exact purpose… if you have a glue gun, you can even take things up a notch with hot gluing. With samples you will be sure of the fabric shade, texture, quality and the fabric feel, also you will know if it is the right fabric for your application. Whether you’re making a creative costume or a fashionable new outfit, the Original VELCRO ® Brand fastener is your creative tool.

The valence surround on our bed kept dropping off the edge so I came up with the idea of using Velcro strips for fabric with base strip stuck to the bed base and the Velcro strip stuck to the valence. Although the options and brands available are almost endless, the easiest way to ensure the adhesive is fit for purpose (especially if you’re using a self-adhesive tape) is to check the options available from Velcro itself. When the two side are pressed together, the hook clutches hold of the loop to form a tight, secure bond.Usually, this happens when lint or debris gathers on the Velcro and stops the hooks from latching onto the loops.
