Pretreatment

A chemical solution sprayed on dark garments before DTG printing. Creates a smooth surface for white ink to adhere to properly.

Example

Printing a white logo on a black hoodie requires pretreatment. Without it, the white ink won't bond properly and will wash out.

Why It Matters

Pretreatment affects print quality on dark garments. Quality print providers like Bear Grips' partners handle pretreatment correctly every time.
