Washing: Cold Water, Gentle Cycle, Inside Out
Heat is the enemy of screen prints and fabric. Always turn your AuronPlay gear inside out before washing. Use cold water (30°C / 86°F max) and a gentle cycle. Hot water shrinks cotton and dulls colors. For the Classic T-auronplay merch store shirt, which is 100% ring-spun cotton and pre-shrunk, cold washing still prevents any residual shrinkage and keeps the fit relaxed.
Detergent tip: Use a mild liquid detergent - no bleach or fabric softener. Softener coats fibers and makes prints peel faster. If you're washing the Premium auronplay merch store hoodie-auronplay-eso-no-lo-jug-is-ni-con-mis-manos-kids-hoodie-0d30c2)-auronplay-eso-no-lo-jug-is-ni-con-mis-manos-hoodie)-auronplay-eso-no-lo-jug-is-ni-con-mis-manos-kids-hoodie-0d30c2)-auronplay-eso-no-lo-jug-is-ni-con-mis-manos-hoodie)-auronplay-vaya-tela-con-el-ni-o-m-s-pesado-hoodie), skip the softener entirely; the fleece interior stays soft without it.
Drying: Air Dry or Low Heat
High heat in a dryer will crack prints and shrink cotton. Best practice: lay flat or hang dry. If you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove items while slightly damp. For the Polo check out auronplay merch store shirt, which has a collar that can warp, air drying is non-negotiable. The Tank Top dries in minutes on a hanger.
Pro tip: If you air dry the Classic T-Shirt, give it a quick shake before hanging to minimize wrinkles. You'll skip ironing.
Storing: Fold, Don't Hang (for some)
Hanging t-shirts can stretch out the neckline over time. For the Classic T-Shirt, fold it and store in a drawer or on a shelf. Hoodies and polo shirts can be hung, but use wide, padded hangers to preserve shoulder shape. Keep your merch away from direct sunlight to avoid fading. If you're storing for long periods, use a cotton garment bags & totes collection.
Stain Removal: Act Fast
Got salsa from your watch party? Blot (don't rub) the stain with cold water immediately. Pre-treat with a dab of detergent and let it sit for 15 minutes before washing. For tough stains like ink or oil, use a spot remover that's safe for colored fabrics. Test on an inconspicuous area first, like the inside hem of the AuronPlay Tank Top.
Avoiding Common Damage
- Pilling: This happens from friction. Wash your hoodie inside out and avoid wearing it under rough backpack straps. A fabric shaver can remove pills if they appear.
- posters & wall art cracking: Don't iron directly over prints. If you must iron, use a pressing cloth or turn the garment inside out and use low heat.
- Color fading: Wash similar colors together and turn dark items inside out. The Classic T-Shirt's black or navy options will stay rich longer.
