important tips

  • Always use a silicone pad for best results. We do not recommend foam pads because they may create uneven pressure and require higher heat. For best results, use our Laserhyde Silicone Hat Mat.
  • Always Check your patches before hat placement. 
  • Always check your upper heat press platen with a laser temperature gun to ensure accurate temps, before applying Laserhyde adhesive to your leatherette sheets
  • Store your patches or leatherette sheets in a cool dry place.
  • Lint roll your hats prior to patch placement.
  • keep your adhesive backing free of dust, use a water based wipe to clean any dust off
  • All our tests are done using a Stahls Hotronix 360 IQ Hat press, your settings may vary for any other style leatherette and adhesive or hat press. For Patches upper and lower heat is recommended, which is why we use the 360 IQ.
  • Always order a few extra sheets of leatherette, to dial in your laser engraving and cut settings

Why Choose Laserhyde Products?

🔹 HOW LASERHYDE OUTPERFORMS OTHER LEATHERETTE COMPANIES🔹

Unlike standard leatherette sheets on the market, Laserhyde leatherette is engineered with reinforced internal layers and backed with our exclusive low-temperature adhesive film designed to give you superior performance and durability. Most thinner leatherette sheets on the market, may produce inconsistent engraving results, and are often bonded or paired with high-heat adhesive films that can require temperatures above 290°F, which can increase the risk of fabric scorching on hats, or other heat-sensitive fabric materials, as well cause color flattening or dulling of leatherette top layers. At Laserhyde, we solved that issue by creating a stronger, lower-temperature adhesive system designed for safer application and better finished results.

  • Stronger bonding adhesion during heat pressing
  • Lower operating temps for safer application on fabrics and hats
  • Cleaner stable engravings without burn inconsistency
  • Stronger support backing that reinforces our leatherette material.
  • Cleaner results when laser cutting your project

🔹 FAQS🔹

Leatherette is a synthetic material designed to mimic real leather while producing clean, high-contrast engraving results.

Yes. Laserhyde leatherette and adhesive materials are specifically tested for professional hat patch makers using heat press applications.

Yes, all Laserhyde leatherette and adhesive  materials are laser safe and offer a Oeko-Tex 100 safety standard certification

Both CO2 and diode lasers are compatible. For best results, we recommend laser systems above 20 watts. For detailed hat patches, RF tube lasers can provide excellent precision and cleaner fine details.

Our recommended cleaner is a 60 to 40% ratio of LA awesome cleaner/degreaser to water. Lightly spray and wipe with a microfiber towel. Avoid harsh alcohol-based cleaners, as they may damage the top surface or dull the engraved fiber layer.

We primarily use a premium solid foam backing material for our sheets. In our testing against other competitors who use primarily double fiber layer backing, we found that the cutting results were not as solid as the foam backing, and rigid stability was lacking in a fiber only backed layer. In our patch pull test, we found that the fiber only backing style, peeled off more consistently than our premium solid sponge style backing, which had a better bond to the hat.

When it comes to leatherette types and colors they all can vary on different lasers, so for the best optimized results we recommend creating a material test in lightburn software to find the best results based on color, lines per inch, power, and speed, see this VIDEO for more info
