Most clothing lines remove the manufacturer’s tags from shirts to screen print their logo and information into the shirt, branding it as their own. Most manufacturers understand this and make their tags easy to remove. There are, however, a handful of shirts that just don’t work well for de-tagging. Here is a list of garments to be aware of:

Not every color garment discharges well. We did some testing to find out what colors worked and what colors didn’t when using discharge inks.
