Орнотуу жана даярдоо

Before transferring your design, ensure your work surface is clean and flat. A cutting mat or pad is recommended to protect your table and provide a stable base for tracing.

Pre-Use Test

It is highly recommended to perform a test on a scrap piece of the same fabric you intend to use. This allows you to verify that the markings can be removed completely and to observe how the tracing paper interacts with your specific fabric type and color.

• Select a small, inconspicuous area of your fabric.
• Place a small piece of Chacopy tracing paper underneath.
• Trace a small line or mark onto the fabric.
• Attempt to remove the mark using water as described in the "Maintenance" section.
• Confirm satisfactory removal before proceeding with your main project.

Иштөө нускамалары

Follow these steps for effective pattern transfer using Clover Chacopy Tracing Paper:

1. Prepare Your Surface: Place your fabric on a firm, flat surface such as a cutting mat or pad. This provides stability and prevents damage to your work area.
2. Position Tracing Paper: Lay the Clover Chacopy tracing paper between your fabric and the pattern or design you wish to transfer. Ensure the colored side of the tracing paper is facing down, directly onto the fabric.
3. Align Pattern: Place your pattern or design on top of the tracing paper, aligning it precisely with your fabric. Secure both the pattern and fabric to prevent shifting during tracing (e.g., with weights or temporary adhesive).
4. Trace Design: Using a tracing wheel or a blunt, pointed tool (such as a stylus or a dull pencil), firmly trace over the lines of your pattern. Apply even pressure to ensure a clear transfer.
5. Verify Transfer: Carefully lift the pattern and tracing paper to check if the design has transferred clearly onto the fabric. If lines are faint, re-align and trace again with slightly more pressure.

The markings made by Clover Chacopy Tracing Paper are designed to be removed with water. After completing your project, gently wash the marked fabric with water to remove any remaining lines.

Маанилүү эскертүүлөр:

• Эриткичтерден качуу: Do not use any oil-based solvents, such as benzine, to remove the markings. These can set the marks or damage your fabric.
• Ironing Caution: It is more difficult to remove the chalk markings once the fabric has been ironed. Always remove markings before ironing the fabric.

Сактагыч

Store unused tracing paper sheets flat in their original packaging or a protective sleeve to prevent creasing and damage. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Проблемаларды чечүү

• Faint or No Transfer:
  • Ensure the colored side of the tracing paper is facing the fabric.
  • Apply more firm and even pressure with your tracing tool.
  • Check if the fabric is too thick or has a coated/textured surface, which can hinder transfer. Consider using a different marking method for such fabrics if Chacopy does not perform adequately after adjusting pressure.
• Marks Not Removing Completely:
  • Ensure you are using only water for removal. Avoid oil-based solvents.
  • Do not iron the fabric before attempting to remove the marks, as heat can set them.
  • Wash the fabric thoroughly with water. For stubborn marks, a gentle fabric soap may be used, followed by rinsing.
  • Always perform a pre-use test on a scrap piece of fabric to confirm removability.
