HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR CUSTOM GARMENTS & APPAREL

Caring for Your Custom Printed Apparel: A Guide by The Print Plug

Maintaining the quality of your custom screen-printed and embroidered garments is essential for long-lasting appeal. At The Print Plug, we understand the importance of garment care, and here are some tips to keep your custom apparel looking its best:

1. Washing Guidelines

• Wash custom garments inside out in cold water. This helps preserve the print and prevents fading.

• Opt for gentle detergents and avoid bleach to protect the colors and fabric integrity.

2. Drying and Ironing

• Air drying is the best way to preserve custom prints. If you must use a dryer, choose a low heat setting.

• When ironing, avoid direct contact with the printed or embroidered areas. Use a thin cloth between the iron and the garment.

3. Stain Removal

• Treat stains promptly. Gently dab the stained area without rubbing, as vigorous rubbing can damage the print.

4. Storage

• Store your custom garments in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging screen-printed tees as it can stretch the fabric; instead, fold them.

5. Avoid Rough Handling

• Be mindful of rough surfaces and activities that might snag or abrade the embroidered areas.

6. Professional Cleaning for Embroidery

• For high-end embroidered garments, consider professional cleaning for best results.
