Method of simultaneously printing a portion of a hook and loop fabric and attaching the fabric to another fabric and the fabric or garment resulting therefrom

摘要

An improved method of simultaneously printing a hook and loop fabric and adhering the fabric to another fabric or garment is provided. The method comprises the steps of applying a heat and pressure sensitive coating to one side of the hook and loop fabric, placing that fabric over a portion of another fabric or garment so that the hook and loop fabric touches the other fabric or garment, heating the two fabrics to commence activation of the coating, applying a printing material onto the hook and loop fabric and compressing the two fabrics together at an appropriate temperature and pressure, and for an appropriate time interval, to complete the activation of the coating so as to adhere the fabrics together and to activate the printing material. The resulting fabric or garment has a hook and loop fabric attached thereto in an unremovable, non-shifting manner due to adhesion of the two fabrics from the coating. The hook and loop fabric will, in addition, have an ornamental design printed thereon as a result of the application of the printing material.
