DTG Curing: How to Build a Reliable Approval Record

Use the ink and garment system’s finishing instructions and verify the finished garment. A curing record should identify the method, settings and evaluation outcome.

Record the full system Identify the garment, pretreatment, ink and print preset before evaluating the finishing stage. Confirm the approved equipment and handling instructions. Keep trial conditions stable so a failed garment can be compared with a known good sample.

Inspect beyond immediate appearance Assess the garment after the stated finishing and cooling procedure, then perform the agreed care evaluation. Record visible changes instead of describing a result simply as good or bad. Repeat the approved setup before moving to a larger production run.
