To wash or not to wash? That is the Question!
Do you associate the moment when you picked up a printed T-shirt and it’s time to wash it, and you have no idea what temperature to set on the washing machine so that nothing bad happens to the print? And another question, can I iron it afterwards? Or maybe you just found yourself in such a situation that you washed a T-shirt at 50 degrees and found that the print suffered?
With our tips, washing printed clothing will no longer be scary.
All you have to do is remember a few rules:
- Always wash clothes on the left side
- Maximum temperature is 30-40 degrees
- Do not exceed spinning 600 rpm
- Do not dry in the automatic dryer
- Do not use strong chemicals
- Iron garments only on the left side (never directly after printing)
These rules apply to printed garments made with technologies such as:
- Screen printing
- Flex and flock
- Subliflock
- Digital printing DTF
