I got my t-shirt signed with a black Sharpie, and I know after a bunch of washes, it'll fade (or run?). Someone please let me know how I can get the autograph to last longer (ex: soak in cold water? put in dryer?)

I would hand wash it in something mild, baking soda. Woolite. and hang dry...I would not put it in the dryer

why would you want to wear it ? hang it up in a poster frame , either the sun , your body oils or , washing it will fade it eventually no matter what you put on it to try to preserve it . also some of this stuff stains the material .

itll fade but it will never go away, pigments form the sharpie bind with the fabric, its like dye

make sure you always wash it out by hand

what if you put clear nail polish over it? just a thought...
