Hey guys Kelly Walters here and today we are using a product called CAD-PRINTZ
Perma-TWILL® now these are something that STAHLS’ produces for you in our services department
but what's magnificent about this product is that it's a hundred percent polyester twill
that has full color capabilities is great for light and dark garments and what's even
better is that it has a permanent adhesive which means you do not have to sew this type of logo
down now we are going to use a variety of different sizes I’ll also review some of the cost
but today we are going to use a really popular style that's out in the retail market
which is a denim jacket and we're using traveling and outdoor inspired patches
so because these are already produced we're not cutting or not weeding we're not printing
these are ready to be applied we are going to head over to the Hotronix Auto Clam that I use
and I will show you how you don't have to worry about seams or buttons by using a couple of tools
now this is the logo or these are the logos that we are using today I’ll actually be using
three of these not this larger one because I’ve already applied it along with several others to
the back once we are done heat applying the front I’ll show you the back because this whole thing
just is going to look awesome now a couple of things you do need to make sure you have on hand
when you are ordering these type of patches is a cover sheet because you can have some color come
or transfer to the cover sheet so you will more than likely be throwing away
this sheet afterwards and then because I said we are going over buttons and seams and pockets we
will be using a 16 by 20 printing pillow today so we've reviewed the tools that you need the garment
and the patches so let's go heat apply now I’m still going to thread just like I normally would
now the other thing that I’ve already done to prep what we are doing is I have already
pre-pressed our garment so make sure you pre-press to help eliminate any type of wrinkles or moisture
that still might be in the garment now what we need to do next is make sure we have
our pillow so I am going to go from the back instead of trying to fight that
and just wiggle that pillow in there as best as possible now this hood is actually detachable
so if you find that something like that gets in your way feel comfortable enough to remove it
now our press is set at 300 degrees for 20 seconds and our goal is going to be to heat
apply all patches at the same time that way we aren't adding any other steps into this uh project
I am going to use my coffee cup down there and then I’m going to add just a couple of fun patches
up at the corner now because we are close to the edge on this just really make sure
that you do in fact have your patches on top of the platen
and not slightly off that way, they can still get even pressure
earlier I mentioned if you have a carrier you would warm peel but as you can see
these are something that we have just laid on the garment and there is no carrier
next you will apply your cover sheet or just lay it over and then you are going to bring your heat
press down now we have lots of obstructions here so we've got pockets we have buttons we have seams
and the reason why you want to use that pillow is so that all of those merchandising elements go
in to the pillow and you're allowing the upper platen to hit the decoration with a smooth press
now since I am using the auto clamp this will automatically pop open once we are complete
and just like that you've now applied three patches with just one hit let's go take a look
at this garment and review the cost per piece okay guys let's take a look at this jacket from
front to back so you saw the three patches that we applied here on the front but what you didn't get
to see was that we created this really cool back we use texture for travel which is actually our
printable soft foam or our cad cut patterns using soft foam and of course we have decked out this
entire jacket with 10 unique traveling patches now one thing I want you to keep in mind is of course
you're probably not going to do 10 jackets for one specific customer unless they are coming to you
ready to throw down some dough now in this particular case this is how I want you to think
about a project like this and what you can really get or warrant in terms of price not only are we
hitting a retail market you could also offer the potential to really customize the layout
using certain patches and of course you are giving that customer full color
capabilities the best part you are not loading this jacket up with lots of stitches
and time and of course having to puncture the garment you also noticed we applied right over
a pocket and we didn't have to sew it together so let me give you a breakdown in terms of cost
now with CAD-PRINTZ Perma-TWILL® or CAD-PRINTZ in general the minimum purchase is 25
now the units change all depending on the size of your logo so I’m going to give you a couple
of different sizes to help trigger what's really possible in your mind now a one by one patch
which is actually let's see if we can find it this little guy on the back is only 17 cents
only 17 cents but what that means in order to hit that 25 minimum is you need 148
pieces now to give you size per size perspective this is a two and a quarter by two and a quarter
and this is four by four now this guy cost a dollar 32 and you only need nineteen to hit
that twenty five dollar minimum where this guy costs three dollars and fifty two cents
and you only need eight pieces so the larger patch is a great way to really customize what the
customer needs and in this case you can have much smaller quantities you can have 19 instead of 148
and then constantly turn out your patches in your inventory now this jacket is obviously a one and
done but what the customer could easily do is add patches if somebody was willing to heat apply as
they needed or traveled throughout their time from a vendor standpoint and you creating this product
for a customer it would be a really good way to have a variety of patches that could potentially
target specific customers think of brides think of going to Disney think of honeymoons think of um
getting married I know I keep mentioning brides and honeymoons
but that is a really easy way to have a variety of patches and then customize that specific look
I hope this really sparked some interest to go out there and try something new with
our CAD-PRINTZ Perma-TWILL® because of how easy it is to apply a patch
without needing to sew I’m Kelly Walters and thanks so much for tuning in we will catch you
