Decoration compatibility
VisePrint guidance derived from this garment's stated fabric and construction — not manufacturer claims.
Screen printing
Excellent
Cotton-dominant knit takes plastisol and water-based ink cleanly with standard cure settings.
- Stretch content — use an ink with good elongation to avoid cracking.
DTF transfer
Good
Compatible with this fabric type at correct press temperature and pressure.
DTG printing
Good
Cotton-rich blend prints acceptably; expect a softer, more vintage result than 100% cotton.
Embroidery
Excellent
Midweight-plus fabric supports dense stitch counts without distortion.
- Stretch fabric — hoop with light tension and use a ballpoint needle.
Heat transfer
Good
Standard HTV and transfers apply well at the correct temperature for this fiber mix.
Sublimation
Not Recommended
Cotton-dominant fabric does not bond sublimation dye.
Decoration results can vary by equipment, ink, transfer material, garment color, and production settings. Always test before beginning a full production run.

About this blank
Please note: The tie-dyeing process gives each garment unique character. Please allow for slight color variation in production and washing.
Care Instructions: Due to the nature of tie dye, loose pigments may remain on the surface of the garments. We therefore strongly recommend washing these garments only with like-colored garments, as some of the tie dyes may stain light or white colored garments in the wash cycle.
*PFD Note: Our PRM4500 & PRM3500 Prepare For Dye sweatshirts are not 100% Cotton. They are a 3-End Knit with 100% cotton Face Yarn, 100% Polyester Middle Yarn, and 80% Cotton/20% Poly back yarn. We chose this blend to achieve some stretch, and an ultra-soft feel for our tie dye that isn’t found in 100% Cotton. Please do your own testing prior to bulk production. Tie Dyes, Pigment Dyes, and other unique dyes/washes work best on this garment. The sewing thread on this PFD Garment is a polyester core cotton sheath thread. We use this to achieve the strength of polyester thread with the dye capabilities of Cotton thread.
