Just so, is iron on hem tape permanent?
The iron's heat melts the glue, causing thetape to stick to the fabric and seal the hem. Hemtape is useful when you need to keep a hem in place butcan't sew it. However, if you have to alter the hem later,or want to put in a permanent sewn seam, you need to removethe hem tape from the fabric.
To remove fusible webb (from the front side offabric), simply use a piece of aluminum foil, place it overthe fusible webb residue, then iron over it with a hot iron(I also used the steam setting) the glue melts onto the foil andlifts away from the fabric.
