Learn How to wash DTG Printed T-shirts
Washing DTG printed shirts are different from washing other methods because of the material used is different. With Dtg printed shirts, the ink is laid into the fabric which would be different from vinyl-printed shirts.
Do DTG Printed shirts peel or fade?
Dtg printed T-shirts will not peel because the ink is printed directly into the T-shirt. This is different then vinyl where the material is placed on top of the shirt. On the other hand, since you are using water-based inks eventually the shirt may start to fade. That is why it's important to wash and dry your t-shirts using our method. The cold water and low drying temperature will make sure your shirt last longer than if you used hot water. If you are curious about how to shrink a t-shirt take a look at our other article.
