Question 3

Should my shirt have a slight vinegar smell?

Accepted Answer

When unpacking a new shirt or hoodie with a direct-to-garment (DTG) print, you might notice a vinegar-like smell or an off-white residue. Don't worry, that's not unusual - it's from a fixation agent applied during the printing process and it's not permanent.

Fixation agent (sometimes known as pre-treatment) is used for all DTG prints across the industry helping the ink bond with the fabric.

The solution is simply to wash the garment! Neither the residue nor the smell is permanent and both should go away after one wash.
