Kris Thompson shares Tips & Techniques using Aleene's Fabric Fusion Permanent Fabric Adhesive. Fabulous for all of your fashion and home decor fabric projects!
I was hoping to get some info about the tape - it's shown in the pic for this video. But I guess some of the instruction here is usful for using the tape as well.
Not bad... I'd really like someone to take their TH-cam video to the next level though and show us (after their glue has set) just how difficult is it to pull their fabric apart. Perhaps the issue is the glues being used don't really hold well and you're avoiding showing us that fact.
Truly, I'm a guy who just wants to make a one-off application of a vintage patch to a vintage Levi's jacket for a gift, and I can't believe how difficult it is to find a SIMPLE but *_useful_* 'review'. It's either some fat-ass stay-at-home crafter -- honestly, I mean no offense -- who wants to talk about her arsenal of glues without really giving much practical advice beyond what you could glean from reading a package in the aisle at WalMart, or it's a bullshit glossed-over review -- read, 'advertisement' -- like this, always accompanied by an equal number of "It's shit" and "OMG, the BEST EV-errrr!!" comments that leave a prospective buyer still standing in the middle of the crossroads. As with most 'searches', SEO bullshit tends to yield less-than-desirable results, no matter how descriptive or sparse the query is. I'd like to accomplish my task effectively, with reasonable expectation of lasting results, without damaging *_true_* 'vintage' pieces that you can't just dash to the Salvation Army Thrift Store or JoAnn's or whatever other crafter supply haven is out there to replace as a mere 'hobby interest' if something gets screwed up. Oh. I would also prefer to not hang for days, or forever, awaiting a useful reply in a TH-cam comment section. You often get what you pay for, so this is just my 'two cents'. ; ]
Don't know if this helps you or if I'm too late but I just started mending an old favorite blanket of mine that I refuse to part with. Anyways I'm adding material all the way around bc the edges are coming apart and fraying. I decided not to just sew them together bc it would be completely uneven and I'm not confident patches will work. I pinned the material in place a half inch from the ends and I just squeezed the glue right out of the bottle instead of using a brush and then pressed the material firmly to make sure it stayed. It actually worked but was extremely messy even though u can roll it off ur fingertips after dried. I decided to go buy the fabric fusion tape instead and I lined my material with the tape(it's not double sided) but u press it firmly and I grabbed my hairdryer and heated it up, then peeled the paper back and the adhesive was perfectly set and all I had to do was fold it over to the other side and done! So far so good but we'll see what happens after running it through the washing machine.
I bought some but couldn't squeeze out the glue so i cut the tip of the top off so it would come out easier. Is that what you are supposed to do? Will it leak out of the bottle this way with lid on but if it's on it's side? I keep all my fabric stuff in a bag, not a shelf. Thanks
Hi Margaret ... we have found that when it comes to Fabric Fusion, less is more. Often times if you use a lot of adhesive, it will work against you rather than for you because it over saturates the fabric. Try using a small amount of adhesive and pressing a heavy object on top of the rhinestones while they dry (or using clothespins to hold in place). If that still doesn't work, it could be that the glue is incompatible with the fabric. In which case, you will probably want to try an industrial-strength adhesive like Aleene's Super Fabric Adhesive: www.aleenes.com/aleenes-super-fabric-adhesive ... we hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi, can you please tell me how I can get this type of tape off of skin? I used to alter my daughters dress & now there's a piece of tape that came off the dress & is stuck to her back. She screams when I just barely touch it. I tried olive oil & that didn't work. Please help!
Hi Melissa ... we're so sorry this happened! Our recommendation is to try a product like Goo Gone, or perhaps rubbing alcohol or a non-acetone nail polish remover. Unfortunately, you're going to have to get whatever remover product you use between her skin and the tape, so peeling it away somewhat will most likely be needed. We're so sorry and hope one of these remedies helps. Please keep us posted!
I'm trying to attach a pocket of elastic TO an elastic waistband...like an undergarment belly band for walking? Soooo many glues out there, will this work or should I stick to sewing?
Hi Joy ... we recommend using Aleene's Flexible Stretchable Glue for elastic fabrics: aleenes.com/aleenes-flexible-stretchable-fabric-glue-aleenes-flexible-stretchable-fabric-glue-4oz ... it will dry permanent and washable as well!
I want to try a project using a tote bag: but I don't believe the tote would hold up to washing without bleeding out the color ( they are just ordinary tote bags--not expensive ) ..do I absolutely have to pre-wash an item like this in order for your product to adhere? thanks
Hi there ... You're probably just fine not washing the tote before gluing. We recommend it because a lot of fabric comes with a chemical called "sizing" on it that helps resist stains and wrinkles, etc., while the fabric is in the stores. Sizing can sometimes prevent the glue from completely bonding with the fabric to its fullest potential, but honestly, you're probably okay without washing first. When using Fabric Fusion, remember that less is more, and to apply a small amount to the fabric. You can even using pins or clothespins to help keep the fabrics together while the glue dries. Too much glue will create oversaturation on the fabric and prevent the glue from working. Does this help? Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hey there! I was just wondering if this fabric fusion would be able to work when sticking together 4 way stretch lycra/spandex materials like the sort made from zentai suits. I'm planning on sticking a large strip of lycra/spandex onto a body suit that's of the same material or a costume. Will the fabrics adhesive take well to the material or will I have to take specific precautions? Thanks!
Hi there! We recommend Aleene's Super Fabric Adhesive for lycra/spandex. You can find it at Walmart, Michaels and JoAnn Fabrics. Here's a link to the 2 oz. online: www.walmart.com/ip/Aleene-s-Platinum-Bond-Super-Fabric-Textile-Adhesive/17299866 ... Please let us know if you need anything else! Good luck with your project!
Hi John, you can try, but you'll have to fold or pinch the fabric together when you adhere it, so it'll most likely create unwanted folds/pleats after gluing. Sorry about that! Unfortunately there isn't much you can do to repair holes on a T-shirt.
Hi John, the tape might work! You can try cutting tiny sections and placing on the backside of the shirt and pulling it together as much as possible where the hole is before sticking the fabric in place. We haven't tried it before! If you do try, let us know how it turns out!
yeah, i have also seen tutorial videos here on youtube about fixing the tiny holes on a T-shirt, they use a fusion bonding web, and it works very well thanks for your replies, God bless :)
We're happy to help however we can! =) Do let us know if you end up trying the tape and have great results ... we can start using that as a tip on our website and videos. =) Take care!
Absolutely! Just remember less is more, so use just a small amount. You can test it on a scrap piece of fabric to get an idea of how it spreads and holds.
Hello. First off, thank you for putting together this video. It's been very helpful. I do have a situation that I was hoping you might help me with. I'm trying to glue fabric to Styrofoam and all the glues I've used do not give a permanent strong bond. Can you suggest something? Thank you so much in advance.
Hi Adrianna! We recommend trying Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue: aleenes.com/aleenes-super-thick-tacky-glue ... It works great on Styrofoam! =) Let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi there ... Fabric Fusion or Quick Dry Fabric Fusion should work just fine with your project! A tip when using Fabric Fusion, less is more, so apply the glue sparingly versus using a lot. Too much glue can oversaturate the fabric, causing it not to work as well, or take too long to dry. Let us know if you have any other questions!
Yes, you can use this to repair a tear in a stuffed animal. However, you may need to pin the repair in place while the glue sets, as there is not an instant tack with this glue.
Hi there! For a heavier duty material, we recommend using Aleene's Super Fabric Adhesive instead. You can find more info here: www.aleenes.com/aleenes-super-fabric-adhesive ... we hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi John! Honestly, Aleene's Original Tacky Glue would be a great option for this project (since you won't be washing it afterward). Tacky Glue brushes on easily and has great holding power. You can also use other Tacky Glue options, like Fast Grab Tacky or Quick Dry Tacky! Here's a link to Original Tacky Glue for more info: www.ilovetocreate.com/aleenes-original-tacky-glue and to check out other Aleene's craft glues, here's another link: www.ilovetocreate.com/all-purpose-adhesives ...

Hi Eric ... for mixed materials projects (like fabric to plastic), we recommend Aleene's The Ultimate Multi-Surface Adhesive instead ... here is a link for more info: www.aleenes.com/the-ultimate-multi-surface-adhesive ... please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi there! We recommend using this Aleene's Leather & Suede Glue instead: aleenes.com/aleenes-leather-and-suede-glue ... Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi, I was wondering if Fabric Fusion could be used to glue down iron-on patches to a denim duffle bag I just purchased? I tried to iron them on and they are not adhering well so I thought glue might be a good alternative and started searching and found this product. If you don't recommend this product, do you have another glue in the Aleene line that would work better? Sewing iron-on patches on to a denim duffle bag is tough on the finger (especially if you don't have a thimble...LOL)
Hi Sybil! Fabric Fusion will probably work just fine to glue a patch onto your denim bag, but if you're looking for another industrial-strength option, Aleene's The Ultimate Multi-Surface Adhesive is also a great one! Here is a link: aleenes.com/the-ultimate-multi-surface-adhesive ... If you use Fabric Fusion, make sure to spread the glue evenly and a good tip to keep in mind is that less is more. Too much glue can oversaturate the fabric, causing a longer dry time or it can affect the overall adhesion. We also recommend that no matter what glue you use, use sewing pins to pin the patch in place on the denim so it won't move while it dries. Clothespins work great too! We hope this helps ... let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi Jayden ... yes it does! We recommend using a disposable paintbrush to brush a light layer of Fabric Fusion onto the back of the patch (too much glue will oversaturate the fabric and might not work as well) - then press onto the jacket. We also recommend using clothespins or sewing pins to hold the patch securely to the jacket while it dries. Then remove when the glue has completely dried. We hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi Katherine ... We think your best bet is to try Aleene's Fabric Fusion Tape instead of the liquid version. You can check out and purchase the tape here: aleenes.com/aleenes-fabric-fusion-permanent-fabric-tape-quarter-inch ... Let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi Kathy ... yes you should be able to. With Fabric Fusion less is more, so when you apply to fabric, apply a thin layer or thin line of glue versus a heavy layer or line. Too much glue can oversaturate the fabric and end up not adhering the fabrics together. Once dry you should be able to sew through the layers of fabric. We hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi there! It depends on the type of fabric you are gluing the yarn to, but Fabric Fusion does work on most fabrics, particularly cotton, denim, jersey, flannel and even leather. And of course most ribbons and trims. If you are gluing felt, we recommend a glue like Aleene's Original Tacky Glue instead. Does this help? Please let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi there! You can order it online here: aleenes.com/aleenes-fabric-fusion-permanent-fabric-adhesive or you can find in most major craft supply stores like Walmart, Michaels and JoAnn, or even on Amazon ... whatever is most convenient for you!
Hi Thomas ... Fabric Fusion is actually nontoxic so no need to worry about cancer/heart defects. You can read more about it here: www.aleenes.com/aleenes-fabric-fusion-permanent-fabric-adhesive ... we hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
For glue removal, we recommend using either high percentage rubbing alcohol (85% or higher), mineral spirits, Goof Off, or Goo Gone. You can also use 100% acetone, but this can damage some surfaces. Due to this, this is only to be used at your discretion.

Thanks 😊 You didn't talk for 10 minutes but got right to the "lesson" at hand. You're very easy to follow and professional. Thank you so much.

i would like to know this as well
I tried using two different glues from Aleena’s and it’s genuinely crap. It doesn’t stick and it makes a mess.

Great Video, could this be used to patch a hole in a pair of jeans by gluing a patch over or behind the hole/rip?
Will this work gluing fabric to a faux leather like vinyl travelers notebook I want to cover ?
I don't know what I'm doing wrong (or if I'm doing anything wrong) but I cannot get the adhesive to work >:(
Don't know if this helps you or if I'm too late but I just started mending an old favorite blanket of mine that I refuse to part with.

I have Alene’s Super Fabric and it seems harder to use. Do you have a vid for this product?
What’s the best way to remove a small dot of this on fabric? I have an art quilt with a drop somewhere I didn’t mean for it to me...
Never heard of this. Will it work on leather too. I need to glue some foam to leather to stiffen it.
My glue has thickened & is unusable. Is there anything I can do to thin it?
I tried the Spray Bottle Glue. All the fabric did was absorb it and made the fabric all crusty.
I bought some but couldn't squeeze out the glue so i cut the tip of the top off so it would come out easier. Is that what you are supposed to do? Will it leak out of the bottle this way with lid on but if it's on it's side? I keep all my fabric stuff in a bag, not a shelf. Thanks
What works best for adhering cotton t-shirt fabrics? A part of the print of my shirt partly chipped and I'd like to glue that part back together.
I have been emblesshing a soft denim shirt with rhinestones, however after glues dries the stones are falling off.
