Light Garment Care Instructions 

 

The direct to garment dying process is a hardy one.  You can wash your t-shirts or customized garments any way you like.  Because the design has bonded to the item, there is no need to:

  • wash your clothes inside out

  • wash on cold

  • remove from the clothes dryer immediately

  • iron inside out

Once the garment dye is in your garment, it will NOT come out.  Your design will NOT fade, peel or crack like iron-on transfers.

If you purchased a white garment, you can even use a light bleach to wash your clothing.  Your custom design will last longer than the t-shirt itself.

Colored Shirts:  We do recommend that if you do purchase a colored shirt to wash it on cold just to keep the color of the t-shirt vibrant.

Shrinking:  Depending on the style of t-shirt chosen, there could be some shrinking of the garment.   The standard cotton t-shirt is pre-shrunk, however some of the other styles such as sports shirts and tank tops tend to shrink vertically by an inch.  Ask any one of the Big Frog designers for more information.  To prevent shrinkage, line dry the item or dry clean.

Pilling: 100% cotton does tend to pill (acquire tiny lint beads) after numerous washes.  This pilling can cause the design to look faded or washed out.  To prevent pilling try the following:

  • Before laundering, turn the garment inside out.
  • Use the gentle cycle which has a slower agitation and shorter wash cycle.
  • Use liquid detergent or allow powdered detergent to dissolve completely before adding garments.
  • Line dry woven fabrics. Dry knitted garments on a flat surface. If using the dryer, remove as soon as possible to lessen abrasion from other fabrics.

Once pilling has occurred, a sweater shaver works great to remove the pills.

 

 

Dark Garment Care Instructions

Because the technology is slightly different for printing on dark garments we recommend certain care instructions that will prolong the life of your clothing.

It is recommended that you:

  • Wash your clothes inside out

  • Wash on cold

  • Dry inside out and remove from the clothes dryer immediately

  • Do not iron or steam press the clothing

Depending on the style of t-shirt chosen, there could be some shrinking of the garment.   The standard cotton t-shirt is pre-shrunk, however some of the other styles such as sports shirts and tank tops tend to shrink vertically by an inch.  Ask any one of the Big Frog designers for more information.
