Fluffy fabrics like towels, plush fabrics like polyester fleece, and ribbed fabrics like corduroy require an embroidery topping to be used to keep stitches from sinking so deep into the material that they can’t be seen.
American Embroidery Supply offers RinseAway for just this purpose. This 20-micron film is hooped on top of the garment and ensures that stitches look crisp, have great registration, and are visible. Once the embroidery is finished, big pieces of the excess are pulled away, and remnants are easily removed by blotting the pieces with a moistened paper towel or damp sponge. A steamer also works very well.
Ideal fabrics to use RinseAway on include fleece, short fur, and some jerseys and knits. It comes on a roll in four sizes: 5 inches by 10 yards, 10 inches by 110 yards, 40 inches by 110 yards, and 40 inches by 550 yards. Store RinseAway in a cool, dry place in an airtight container for the longest shelf life.
All online orders are shipped the same or next business day. Detailed instructions on how to use many specialty stabilizers are available on the web site. For more information, please contact American Embroidery Supply at 888-518-6522; 678-540-6336; fax: 706-322-8504; or email:
