We want you to feel confident about your custom IR patch order before production begins. That is why you can request a physical proof to review your design, layout, and overall appearance.

Our team works with your submitted artwork and requirements to prepare a design for your approval. If you need adjustments, communicate them during the proofing stage so the approved design reflects your expectations.

Please review the proof carefully before giving production approval. Custom orders are produced according to the approved design and specifications.

Good artwork helps create a clean, readable custom IR patch. Before submitting your design, keep the following recommendations in mind:

• * Use Clear Artwork: Upload a high-resolution logo or design whenever possible.

• * Keep Text Readable: Choose lettering that remains clear at your selected patch size.

• * Avoid Excessive Detail: Very small text, thin lines, and complex details may not reproduce clearly at smaller sizes.

• * Check Spelling: Review names, numbers, unit identifiers, and other text before approving your proof.

• * Share Your Design Requirements: If you have a specific layout, reference image, or existing patch design, include it with your order.

• * Confirm IR Requirements: If your patch must work with specific night-vision equipment or identification systems, share those requirements before production.

Our team can review your artwork and help prepare it for the custom patch production process.

The right backing depends on where and how you intend to attach your custom IR patches. Available backing options may include:

• * Hook and Loop (Velcro): Suitable for compatible loop panels on tactical gear, uniforms, bags, and equipment.

• * Sew-On Backing: A practical option for permanent attachment to compatible fabric surfaces.

• * Iron-On Backing: Designed for compatible fabrics and heat-application methods.

• * Adhesive Backing: Useful for suitable smooth surfaces where an adhesive attachment is appropriate.

Choose the backing that matches your intended application. If you are unsure which option is suitable for your equipment, contact our team before placing your order.

Application instructions depend on the backing selected for your custom IR patches.

For Hook and Loop Backing:

Attach the patch to a compatible loop panel and press it firmly into place. Make sure the panel is clean and free from loose debris.

For Sew-On Backing:

Position the patch on the desired area and secure it with suitable stitching. Check the placement before sewing.

For Iron-On Backing:

Follow the application instructions supplied for the specific patch and fabric. Use a compatible heat setting and test the fabric first. Avoid applying heat directly to any material that may be damaged by high temperatures.

For Adhesive Backing:

Apply only to a clean, dry, compatible surface. Press firmly and allow the adhesive to set according to its instructions.

Do not assume that every backing or application method is suitable for every IR material. Confirm the recommended method before applying your patch.

Proper care can help maintain the appearance and attachment of your custom IR patches.

• * Follow the care recommendations for the specific patch material and backing.

• * Avoid unnecessary high heat, harsh chemicals, and abrasive cleaning.

• * Do not scrub printed, coated, or reflective surfaces aggressively.

• * Keep hook and loop backing free from lint and debris.

• * Store unused patches in a clean, dry place.

• * Inspect patches regularly if they are used on frequently handled equipment.

If your IR patches have specific material or performance requirements, follow the care guidance provided for that construction.

We want your custom IR patches to match the design and specifications approved for production. Please review your physical proof carefully, including artwork, text, dimensions, colors, and other order details.
