Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Mineral Tee ready for immediate DTF printing? Yes. The surface is specifically optimized for high-definition DTF, screen printing, and heat transfer applications, ensuring reliable adhesion without chemical interference.
What is the best way to wash a custom-printed mineral tee? To preserve both the unique wash and the printed design, launder the shirt inside out in cold water with similar colors. Avoid bleach and harsh softeners.
Does the fabric feel soft or rough? The tee features a premium, soft-touch finish. Despite the rugged “vintage” look, the material is highly breathable and designed for maximum comfort against the skin.
Will the shirt shrink in the dryer? The fabric is engineered for minimal shrinkage. However, to maintain the perfect fit and print integrity, we recommend air drying or using a low-heat tumble setting.
Is the mineral wash stable or will it fade? Our high-quality dye process is designed for colorfastness, ensuring the garment retains its signature vintage depth and tonal variations through dozens of washes.
What sizes are currently stocked? We offer a full range of retail-ready sizes, typically from Small through 2XL, to accommodate a diverse customer base.
Can I iron the shirt? You can iron the fabric on a low-to-medium setting, but never iron directly over your custom DTF print. We recommend ironing the garment inside out.
Why is this a better choice for my clothing line than a standard tee? The unique texture and premium silhouette provide immediate “perceived value.” It allows you to position your brand as a higher-end streetwear label rather than a basic promotional shop.
