iron-on name tags
Just wondering if anyone has had any success with iron-on name tags for
elderly relatives going into residential care? Reviews seem to be mixed so wondering if it would be better to get sew-on ones? Cheers - Pete |

Reviews seem to be mixed so wondering if it would be better to get sew-on ones? The iron on ones will work on suitable fabrics that will stand a hot iron but they may still fall off in a commercial laundry hot power wash after enough cycles. The trick is to get the glue melted uniformly. Obviously using iron on labels for woollen cardigans and jumpers is a lost cause. You pretty much have to sew them on. -- Regards, Martin Brown |

Almost zero issues so far except on sport socks where the "knit" of them seems to hasten the stickers demise.... -- Jim K ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

There are, incidentally, suppliers of special clothing that will withstand care home washing or that has extra velcro etc openings so is easier to get on/off or open for toileting etc. Owain |

Seems to be not so trivial in Oz, or why would you STILL be living, being a lonely forsaken senile pest, despised by everyone who gets to know you? -- Marland answering senile Rodent's statement, "I don't leak": "That¢s because so much **** and ****e emanates from your gob that there is nothing left to exit normally, your arsehole has clammed shut through disuse and the end of prick is only clear because you are such a ******."

Thanks all. I'm now thinking perhaps a combination of iron-on and sew-on might be a good option for the assorted clothes. Yet another job to sort out. Cheers - Pete |
