Pretreatment serves as a vital liquid solution utilized by Direct-to-Garment printers, enabling the printing and washability of white ink or full-color images on a range of colored shirts. Acting like a primer, it allows the white ink printed through the DTG printer to adhere to and remain on top of the shirt, ensuring optimal results for any white ink direct-to-garment printer.
The Original Image Armor DARK Formula revolutionized the pretreatment industry in 2013, introducing significant improvements over existing formulas. These enhancements included reduced crystallization during heat pressing, a smaller pretreatment box, significantly improved washability, and an extended application window.
Designed for use with all DTG printers on the market, the DARK Shirt Formula is ideal for printing on medium-dark colored shirts to black garments with white ink. It's important to note that a white underbase is necessary for all CMYK inks to maintain washability.
Key Features of Image Armor DARK Shirt Formula:
  • Fast Gelling: Easy application via Aerosol Spray can or liquid form using a spray gun or automated pretreatment system.
  • Ink Efficiency: Achieve vibrant colors while using less ink with Image Armor DARK.
  • Reduced Crystallization: Experience significantly less crystallization on shirts, resulting in smoother prints and enhanced garment appearance.
  • Improved Washability: Enhance the wash fastness of any ink set, ensuring long-lasting, high-quality prints.
