Print care instructions

To ensure the longevity of your HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl) prints, it’s important to follow these care instructions:

Washing Instructions:

  1. Wait 24-48 hours before the first wash – Let the vinyl fully adhere to the fabric before washing.

  2. Turn the garment inside out – This minimizes direct friction on the vinyl.

  3. Wash in cold water only

  4. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach – These can damage the vinyl or cause it to peel prematurely.

  5. Use mild detergent – Harsh chemicals may weaken the bond between the vinyl and the fabric.

  6. Do not hand wash

Drying Instructions:

  1. Air-dry when possible – Avoid direct heat exposure to the HTV.

  2. Do not tumble dry

Ironing Instructions:

  1. Avoid direct heat from the iron – If ironing is necessary, turn clothing inside out.

General Tips:

  • Avoid stretching the fabric excessively as it can weaken the adhesive of the vinyl.

  • Do not dry clean HTV garments; the chemicals involved may ruin the print.

Following these steps will help your HTV designs stay vibrant and intact for a longer time.
