How to care for your DTG, DTF, and Sublimation apparel

Introduction

When it comes to washing your limited edition apparel, it's important to know the specific care instructions for each type of printing method. In this blog we will cover washing instructions for Sublimation, DTG, and DTF printed apparel.

How to care for DTG printed apparel

DTG (Direct-to-Garment) printing uses water-based ink to print directly onto the fabric of a garment. The resulting print is soft and breathable, making it a popular choice for custom t-shirts and other clothing items. To care for your DTG printed clothing, it is recommended to:

 

  • Wash inside out in cold water
  • Hang dry or lay flat to dry
  • Do NOT use bleach or fabric softeners
  • Avoid ironing directly on the print (iron inside out)
  • Do NOT dry clean

DTF (Direct to Film) printing is a newer method that uses a special film to print onto fabric. The result is a high-quality, durable print that is resistant to fading and cracking. To care for your DTF printed clothing, it is recommended to:

 

  • Wash inside out in cold water
  • Hang dry or lay flat to dry
  • Do NOT use bleach or fabric softeners
  • Do NOT iron directly on the print (iron lightly inside out)
  • Do NOT dry clean

How to care for Sublimation Printed Apparel

Sublimation printing uses heat to transfer dye into the fibers of the fabric, resulting in a vibrant and long-lasting print. To care for your sublimation printed clothing, it is recommended to:

 

  • Wash inside out in cold water
  • Hang dry or lay flat to dry
  • Do NOT use bleach or fabric softeners
  • Do NOT iron directly on the print
  • Do NOT dry clean

Proper care is crucial in maintaining the quality of your limited edition, custom printed clothing. By following the recommended washing instructions for your specific type of printing method, you can ensure that your BLMTD apparel stays looking great for years to come. Wheter you have DTG, Sublimation, or DTF printed apparel, proper care will ensure your streetwear clothing items stay vibrant and long-lasting.
