Are all your shirts pre-treated?

Not all of our shirts require pre-treatment. Darker color shirts with specific designs do require an underbase to ensure the design will last longer and not wash off.

The pre-treatment area is the size of our printing area and easily washes off after the first wash. You should receive a notice inside the package if the pre-treatment is highly visible. This area could look like a large transparent, or translucent, square or rectangle.
The pre-treated area is a non-toxic water based coating that helps your design last as long as possible.

Do you offering tracking number with orders?

Yes once your order is in process of shipping out you will receive a tracking number for that order which can be viewed in your Order history page. Currently we only offer tracking for orders going to the United States.

How secure is my personal information and my customers?

Tacky Tee uses industry standard privacy protection; we don't sell, lease or otherwise distribute any personal customer information.

Are there tax on orders?

All Canadian orders are subject to HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) for orders being shipped within Canada. An HST tax of 13% is included to Canadian orders within your shopping cart at checkout.
