Hands-on testing pending. What follows is verified reference data and manufacturer specification, marked as such.

What we verified. B09C6JV9K2 designates this one-metre cut on all six Amazon stores we checked, confirmed on EAN. The listings state 90 cm width and a 45% viscose, 30% polyester, 25% polyamide composition, and the product name appears in several word orders — “Decovil Light”, “Vlieseline Light Decovil”, and simply “Vlieseline SB” on the French page. The identifier is what ties them together; the titles do not.

How to fuse it without regret. Press, lift, move, press again — do not glide the iron. Decovil Light is thicker than a garment interfacing and the adhesive needs a few seconds of steady heat and pressure in each position. Sliding an iron across it bubbles the surface, and once it has fused unevenly there is no second attempt: the panel is spoiled. Test the setting on an offcut first, because the right temperature varies with the outer fabric far more than the packet suggests.
