Based on limited information, one method for removing an applied logo from a shirt involves using heat and careful peeling.
Here's a breakdown based on the reference video clip:
-
Apply Heat: Place something absorbent (like a cloth or paper towel) behind the logo on the inside of the shirt. This helps protect the rest of the garment. Then apply heat to the front of the logo. The video mentions this makes the logo wet looking, suggesting it’s softening the adhesive.
-
Peel Carefully: Once the logo appears wet or softened from the heat, carefully pick at the edges with your fingernails to start peeling it away from the fabric.
Important Considerations:
-
Type of Logo: This method seems best suited for logos that are applied with an adhesive, like vinyl or heat-transfer logos. Embroidered logos will require different techniques (likely involving a seam ripper).
-
Fabric Type: The type of fabric your shirt is made from will affect how it reacts to heat. Test a hidden area of the shirt first to ensure the heat won't damage or discolor the fabric.
-
Residue: There may be some adhesive residue left behind. You may need to use a gentle adhesive remover or try washing the shirt to remove any remaining stickiness. Always test any cleaning product on a hidden area first.
-
Potential Damage: Removing a logo carries the risk of damaging the fabric. Proceed with caution and be prepared for the possibility of a visible mark or slight discoloration where the logo was.
