HOW TO USE

There are many ways to do this so don’t feel limited to these instructions, but I will give you what I think is the most practical way to heat and use your brand! Please always wear proper heat protective gloves when handling a hot brand!

First establish a nice and hot fire - charcoal or wood should be sufficient. You can also use a large torch. If using a fire, sure you establish a nice and red hot base at the bottom. Heat the brand for 5-10 minutes (this time all depends on how hot your fire is, and how large your brand is). Turn the brand every 30 seconds to keep an even heat on the brand. The metal needs to be at a “black heat” - it does not need to be red-hot.

When you are ready to use the brand, press it flat and firmly on your material. You may need to rock the brand to ensure that the ends of the design get nicely burned. The time you need to hold the brand down ranges from about 1-8 seconds, based on how hot your brand is, and what material you are branding.

We highly suggest practicing with the brand before your final event/project. This allows you to get a feel for how long it takes to heat, and how long it takes to brand items. It all depends on your heat source, and how deep you want the brand to be.
