HAND-WASH, INSIDE OUT IN COLD WATER WITH MILD DETERGENT, HANG DRY FOR ALL EMBRACE HIS GRACE LLC APPAREL ITEMS

Comfort Colors is made of a 100% cotton blend so fading of dye-sublimation designs will occur over time. To prolong their life, it is recommended to hand-wash with mild soap in cold water. Polyester fabrics have a longer life span.

Washing your garments inside out protects your vinyl items from washing out and abrasion inside the washer. Cold water temperatures are preferred due to the hot temperatures effect of weakening the adhesive of the vinyl and dye-sublimation inks which causes it to fade, peel, and or crack. Use MILD detergent, any special additives like “whitener” “stain fighter” or “color brighteners” are too harsh. Heat transfer vinyl (HTV) items are activated and cured by high pressure and high temperature.

Hang dry is the best method for drying items. Just like with the washing process, you want to use minimal heat to protect your dye-sub and HTV. Hang dry also helps minimize wrinkles seen in the HTV after washing. Do not iron directly over any image area and do not use bleach or fabric softeners.

For screenprinted items in the shop, hand washing and hang drying is recommended. It is natural for the screenprint ink to fade overtime after many washes. The ink used is sealed by heat. Do not put screenprinted items in the dryer, as this will crack the sealed ink after a few cycles. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents on the fabrics and ink. Do not iron directly over ink. (Place a thin fabric between the iron or source of heat and the apparel item to avoid melting of ink if ironing is necessary).

NEVER dry clean or iron your items. The dry cleaning process has a lot of chemicals and high temps that will damage your heat transfer vinyl and screenprint plastisol ink.
