WASH AT LOW TEMPERATURES (30°C OR LOWER):
Wash your printed t-shirts at 30 degrees or lower. Screen prints are more durable but washing in cooler water helps extend the life of the print & prevents the garment itself from shrinking, becoming bobbly, or fading.
HANG DRY (OR IF YOU MUST, TUMBLE DRY LOW)
The best way to dry printed t-shirts is to hang them up to air dry. Screen printed shirts can be tumble dryed on low, but we recommend hanging to dry to avoid shrinking, fading, and the garment becoming bobbly.
WASH INSIDE OUT:
Before washing, turn your t-shirts inside out. This protects the print from rubbing against other clothes and helps keep it looking fresher for longer. It also reduces wear on the garment itself, keeping it smoother and less prone to pilling.
WASH WITH LIKE COLOURS / MATERIALS:
Overloading the washing machine can cause clothes to rub against each other excessively, leading to pilling, fading, or print damage. Wash your printed shirts with similar colours and fabrics to keep them safe and looking new. For example, wash whites only with other whites, and avoid washing heavy fabrics like towels and heavy denim with printed garments.
USE MILD DETERGENTS AND AVOID BLEACH:
Use a mild detergent to wash your printed shirts. Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals, as these can fade the colours and damage both the print and the fabric. For stains, use a stain remover that can be applied directly to the spot before washing.
DO NOT IRON OVER THE PRINT:
Don’t iron directly over the printed area. If you need to iron, turn the shirt inside out or place a cloth over the print, and use a low heat setting. High heat can damage the print.
