Heat setting is recommended for best durability. Allow the printed design to dry overnight. Heat set the painted surface using a dry, hot iron and a pressing cloth. Lay pressing cloth over the painted fabric and iron the painted design for 30 seconds, lift the iron and move it to another section of the painted design. Your iron should be set at the highest setting allowed for the decorated fabric, no steam. |

A: |
You may choose to be creative when designing fashion apparel and use a ribbed or textured fabric, however, when screen print painting, you may lose some of the design within the ribs or over the texture. For best results, we recommend smooth, non-textured fabrics. |

Q: |
|
A: |
Yes, all fabrics should be prewashed using soap and water following the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Most denim fabrics should be washed multiple times in hot water to thoroughly remove the sizing in the fabric. DO NOT use a liquid fabric softener or a dryer sheet as this may prevent the paints from adhering properly. If your garment is wrinkled, you may iron the fabric as instructed on the garment label. DO NOT use a spray starch product. |
