What is the safest way to remove a letter on a jacket that I forgot to weed out the hole in the "e". It isn't real noticable but I caught it right after I pressed it. I just gave the person a discount on it but would sure feel better about it if I could correct it. But if it is going to make it worse, I would rather leave it and if it bothers them too much, I will replace it. I do my own proof reading and double checking, so I can't blame it on a hired hand.

I get me a full set of sharpie markers in all colors. If it's a small area, you can color it and fill it in with whatever color the piece of clothing is. It lasts very, very well.

I was sure I wasn't the only one that had done that, but I would not of thought of coloring over it, thanks I will look for some sharpie colors to keep on hand, just in case.
Thanks for getting back to me so fast.

Re: mistakes in weeding out letters before pressing
I too have made this type of mistakes . . one thing I have done is gotten a cotton swab and a little bit of acetone . . and just dab the center of the mistake (just a dab because it will run and it loosen the rest of the letter) with a weed tool carefully remove the center of the letter.
or using the same method remove the entire letter and try again.
Re: mistakes in weeding out letters before pressing
I was afraid to mess with it, I was afraid after you pressed it you probably can't weed it out then, I was afraid it would make it worse.
I have not done anything yet. The customer wanted the jackets for Xmas. I will just tell her if it bothers her, I will make it good some how. It was just a small "e."?????????
Thanks for getting back with my post.
