FASTNESS
Color Fastness is a measure of how permanent a color is on fabric or on printed substrate. Color could be adversely affected by number of factors including exposure to sunlight, to water, to normal washing, to wear and tear, etc and etc. Various tests assess how the color is affected by these parameters and individual value is then established to indicate the degree of color change.
Following data has been evaluated on a 105g/m2 of 100% polyester fabrics. And, heat press at 210oC(410oF) for 30 seconds. To achieve the fastnesses shown on the table, it is recommended with direct printing that the excess chemicals be eliminated by washing.
