Care Instructions
- Wash with cold water—opt for temperatures at or below 30°C (86°F) to be gentle on the print, preventing it from fading or shrinkage.
- Delicate cycle—set your machine to a delicate cycle, ideally around 600 rpm to minimize friction.
- Soft detergent—use a mild detergent, as harsher detergents can cause the ink to fade or discolor.
- Avoid fabric softener and dry cleaning, as it can be too harsh for the ink, degrading the print quality.
- Avoid bleach—although it’s best not to use bleach, you can opt for a non-chlorine bleach, if necessary.
How to dry the t-shirts?
- Keep the t-shirt inside out.
- The best option would be to hang dry them, but with DTG-printed t-shirts, you can also use tumble drying.
- If you choose tumble drying, do it on a low heat setting, as over time higher temperatures can dry out the ink, causing it to crack.
Some extra precautions:
- Avoid direct sunlight before washing—due to the pre-treatment of DTG printing, direct sunlight can cause sun staining, which is nearly impossible to get rid of.
- Ironing—keep the t-shirt inside out and avoid ironing the printed part directly.
- Separate laundry—divide light and dark garments to reduce any chance of color bleeding.
