So I’m making a diaper bag from your Aragon bag pattern and decided I wanted to Odicoat it, not realizing there were so many pattern pieces😂😂. I’ve been cutting and Odicoating for DAYS. I also learned quickly that all of the pattern pieces should be interfaced before Odicoating. Just a suggestion based on my experience. My exterior fabric is Liberty London and is so thin and delicate that my test piece without SF101 just shriveled. Once it was ready to iron, the wrinkles didn’t all come out. I decided to interface ALL pattern pieces and that worked much better.
Thank you for this. Just found you as I wanted some information on this product. A really helpful and thorough video. I will now subscribe to your video and also buy the product. Thank you :)
Thank you 🙏 I also received a bank card type of applicator with their website printed on it. Purchased last week and as it was from an Australian business received it today Thursday 17 December 2020! I also received my snaps kit today again posted from another Aussie business. Covid19 has created a lot of us Aussies the need to search out Aussie companies as delivery to us here far outweighs the cost of the product sadly. Again thank you. 🙏😷🐶🇦🇺
Great video! Very helpful. I think I might try applying it with a 4-6 inch foam paint roller to see if that’s easier. Thanks for giving me confidence to try.
Thanks heaps for the demonstration. I had bought some Odicoat a while ago after seeing it demonstrated at a craft show. but did not have the confidence to try it at home, Thanks to you I have refresher video that I can watch over and over
Thanks for your sharing and professional video production. A trick if you need to do a large cover use Thompson water seal in a sprayer. I have used it on sail covers. Of course the usual disclaimers apply.
Have u created any bags with odicoat, and how have they survived use/rain? What do u use on outside of bags to make weather resistant, not actually weatherproof?
Thank you for this!!! I bought some a little while ago but the directions aren't perfectly clear to me, I'm sure it's just me but this video was A HUGE help!!!
Gosh Sara, I have never heard of that before!! How cool and would be great for my sister who lives south of Seattle, Washington and you know why that would come in handy for her, right???? I was raised up there and believe it or not, I do miss that rain!! lol Peace and blessings,
Hi Sarah, can you please tell me whether I would need to apply the OdiCoat before using any type of stabilizer or interfacing? I am getting ready to make my daughter-n-law a diaper bag for her baby shower and I will be applying fusible interfacing as well as fusible fleece so was wondering if this would be a problem after applying the OdiCoat to the fabric. I have an industrial heat press that I use to apply the fusible interfacing and fleece but was wondering if I should just use my iron or do you think I'd be okay using my heat press after using this product? Any advice would be helpful. Thank you very much for your help and advice. Tammy
I have applied this to several completed bags with success, however not much success applying to fabric then trying to sew on top of the fabric even with a teflon presser foot. Maybe you have a suggestion that I haven't thought of. Thanks!
Hello Sara, I want to ask you something: Do you think I can use Odicoat for a cotton bag already made, like airplane bag? I think that it will get in the seams and make it good to go on a trip for easier cleaning, instead of doing it before, what do you think? And do you think one jar is enough for a big bag like the airplane big travel bag? Thank you! Cary Delano
Have you checked how this fabric holds up over time? I hate that iron on stuff! It cracks and is crinkling! This seems so much better if it holds up well!
Hi there! I was wondering if this is good to use for cloth diapers? Would it finally make the hidden PUL redundant 🤔. Let me know what your thoughts are.
Thanks for the video. I am disappointed , i got the odif odicoat as it was the only one in the store, when i spread the gel and the next day i removed the fabric from the flat cardboard i had used to apply it,it was all stuck to the cardboard, fabric ruined. I tried again and this time let it dry hanging on octopus dryer, was ok, but it smells chemical. There is definitely an odor with the odif odicoat, which i thought would be the same as that one.
I use Odi Coat. I have a couple of tips for you. First of all, make sure you use the scraper included and scrape evenly in the same direction a thin coat. Apply in a well lit room so you can see where you’ve covered. After coating you iron it. To do this set your iron to hot but not crazy hot. Just a usual temperature you’d iron with. Place a piece of parchment paper on the ironing board to protect it. Place your odi coated item on top. Place another piece of parchment on top of your Odi coated fabric and give it a good iron. It’s usually finished when the fabric doesn’t stick to the parchment paper. When it’s cool you can add another layer. Just repeat the ironing process. This way you don’t have to wait for it to dry and it takes the smell away too. I hope this helps .
Hi Sara, wondering.. when you apply the interfacing do you need to keep a layer of parchment paper underneath.. between the odicoat and the ironing board surface?
I used SF101 before I used the Odicoat. I would suggest using parchment paper or a Teflon sheet throughout construction. This is based on my experience of using Odicoat. Not sure how it worked for others.

How has the Odi coat held up on your bag?

Wow! I have to try this out! Thanks Sarah! Did you sew over it yet? I'm curious about what it's like to sew through.
I'd like to use this product for a jacket. Will it make the edges soft enough to sew and bend?
Have you ever applied on a completed bag vs. one to be assembled?
I have applied this to several completed bags with success, however not much success applying to fabric then trying to sew on top of the fabric even with a teflon presser foot. Maybe you have a suggestion that I haven't thought of. Thanks!
What needle are you using? have you tried a denim needle?
LOVE this tutorial. Very helpful
The waterproofness of my PUL cloth diaper covers has deteriorated over time. Can I use this to make my diaper covers waterproof again?

Bought some and excited to try out! :-)
Thanks for this video, I just found it! Question, could you use modpage fabric glue in the same manner as the odicoat? Just curious.
Thank you very much for sharing. How much is it? Is scotch guard good for fabric?
I ordered mine on Amazon for $15, can't wait to use
Can this product be used on fabric being used for a baby bib?
Thanks very much for your video, it’s very helpful.
Have you checked how this fabric holds up over time? I hate that iron on stuff! It cracks and is crinkling! This seems so much better if it holds up well!
very helpful
I wonder how this would work with fabric rope bowls?
Would you put it on before sewing a purse together or after it is constructed?
before :)
Could u use it on a crochet dog coat
I want to curl yarn and have it look like a pumpkin or grape vine thingy..... You know what I mean ? Any suggestions?

Gabriela rodriguez this is my question too!
nice video😊 can I make my motorcycle jeans waterproof 2ith it? if yes should I paint it on inside or outside? is is suitable for a leather jacket?
@Sew sweetness, Are you still using this product? After the first iron with parchment paper can you iron with out it? Thanks in advance.
I have a question... do you think we can use it to make those fabric bowl covers??? Would it be toxic if food touch it???
I don't believe Odicoat is food safe so I wouldn't put food directly on it.
@@bronwyncarr6714 Thank you 🌹
Can I use this for my prints in canvas tote bags to make them waterproof?
Yes, Odicoat makes fabric waterproof or waterresistant.
@@bronwyncarr6714 thank you so much
Thank you for the video! Will it be difficult to sew after you coated with Odicoat?
Yes it is difficult. I apply to my purse when my purse is completed. I have found one coat is sufficient, hope that helps!
@@yeaz0317 That's a big hello... Thank you!!!!!

is there a big container of this stuff?
I've never seen it in different sizes.
Nice video
It was difficult removing the Odicoat from my hands! I will wear gloves next time!
You talk more than much. Sorry mAm.
