Troop Tshirt Care

Directions for making troop tshirt design colorfast:
 
Allow shirt to dry completely.
 
Place paper towel inside shirt and over top of design (on both sides of design). Iron with household iron set at medium heat (275-375 degrees) for three minutes each side.
 
Run through the dryer on high.
 
This should set the color completely. We have shirts that are approaching twenty years old and nearly falling apart from bleach, but the design is still dark and clear.
