Caring for your Clothes
How should I care for my clothes?
To care for your screen-printed clothes and ensure their longevity, follow these tips:
Turn Inside Out: When washing, turn the garment inside out. This helps protect the printed design from friction and abrasion.
Use Cold Water: Wash the clothes in cold water. Hot water can cause the ink to fade or bleed.
Gentle Cycle: Opt for a gentle cycle on your washing machine to minimize stress on the fabric and the print.
Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent to avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the ink or fabric.
Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach as it can degrade the colors and affect the print.
Air Dry or Low Heat: To prevent shrinkage and fading, air dry your screen-printed clothes or use a low heat setting on the dryer.
Iron Inside Out: If ironing is necessary, do it inside out or place a cloth over the printed area. Avoid direct contact between the iron and the print.
Store Properly: Store your garments in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause fading.
Following these care instructions will help maintain the vibrancy and integrity of your screen-printed designs.
