Caring for Printed Shirts in Washing Machines

To preserve designs on printed shirts , follow these good to-do steps:


Pre-Wash Prep:


  • Turn shirts inside out to protect prints from friction.
  • Sort by color and fabric type to prevent bleeding and abrasion.
  • Machine Settings
  • Low spin speed (400-800 rpm) to minimize stress on prints.
  • Avoid overloading (10-15 items max) to reduce rubbing.
  • Detergent & Additives
  • Mild liquid detergent only—harsh chemicals degrade prints.
  • No bleach/fabric softeners—these weaken print adhesion.

 


Drying

  • Air-dry in shade—sunlight fades prints; avoid machine drying.
  • Hang on rounded hangers to maintain shape and minimize wrinkles.

 


For Stubborn Stains

  • Spot-treat with laundry soap or a soft sponge, avoiding direct scrubbing on prints.
  • Avoid hot water and abrasive fabrics to prevent cracking
