How to clean printed fabrics

Nowadays, printed fabrics are highly popular as fabrics with high usage rates. But what everyone needs to know here is that it is actually different from embroidery, which is prone to fading, material loss, folding, and other issues. Washing it can be a headache.
The printing manufacturer stated that when manufacturing products, the pigment is first printed on paper through printing methods to make transfer printing paper, and then the color is transferred to the fabric through high temperature (heating and pressure on the back of the paper). It is usually used for chemical fiber fabrics. Bright colors, delicate layers, realistic patterns, and strong artistry. However, this process is only applicable to a few synthetic fibers, such as polyester. The transfer printing process is simple, investment is small, and production is flexible. Currently, it is very popular in the market, but compared to other printing types, the price is a bit high, but it has a certain level. In addition, it mainly uses chemicals that can locally expand or contract fibers on the fabric through printing methods. Through appropriate treatment, products manufactured by printing manufacturers can generate differences in expansion or contraction between some fibers and non printing fibers, thereby obtaining products with regular and uneven patterns on the surface. For example, the pure cotton printing seersucker uses caustic soda as the expansion agent. Also known as bump printing. In addition, there are dozens of colors in terms of color matching, color transition, and contrast between light and dark. Colorful printed fabric has the saying of "seven red, eight green, and twelve blue", reflecting the diversity and complexity of color matching.
The printing manufacturer stated that when cleaning the printed fabric, it is necessary to wet one corner of the fabric and then wipe it several times with a white cloth. If the white cloth is dyed, the color will fade. It is also recommended that everyone clean correctly, do not soak, rinse separately with cold water, pack, dehydrate, and air dry. If stained, immediately rinse thoroughly again. If possible, it can be dry cleaned. So if you accidentally get cooking oil, you need to scrub it with detergent as soon as possible; For industrial oil stains, scrub with pine perfume or gasoline, and then rinse with detergent and water (do not use hot water). Of course, most fabric clothes cannot be directly exposed to the sun, as ultraviolet rays are the main cause of clothing fading. Therefore, it is not only necessary to air them in reverse, but also to avoid air drying in cool and ventilated areas as much as possible. In short, it is normal to use and maintain it normally. After washing pure cotton with water, there will be color fading phenomenon, which is normal. The printing manufacturer stated that it needs to be cleaned by hand, and there is also a smell that can only be dried in the sun, and it can also have a normal smell. Many of them are machine washed or washed with detergents to fade.
