This is not just a shirt. This is a public service announcement. White tee, big beat-up lettering across the back screaming:
STOP TOUCHING THE PAINT
You know exactly who this is for:
The people who lean on fenders.
The ones who drag their hand down the quarter panel like it’s a railing.
The “nice car, bro” guys who immediately put a fingerprint on the door.
This shirt is how you talk to all of them at once… without saying a word. You just turn around and let the back do the preaching. It’s got that shop-floor, industrial vibe — like something a foreman, a painter, or a detailer would wear after the third time someone put their palm on a freshly corrected hood.
Perfect for:
- Cars & coffee where everyone suddenly forgets boundaries
- Shop days when you’re one fingerprint away from snapping
- Delivery days when the car is flawless and your trust in humans is not
Soft but sturdy 100% cotton means you can actually work in it — lift, wipe, polish, yell — and it still holds its shape. Classic relaxed fit, proper crew neck, no weird cuts, no gimmicks. Just a clean silhouette that lets the message do the yelling.
Why this one ends up in heavy rotation:
- Durable medium-weight 100% cotton (around 180 g/m²) — not flimsy, not stiff
- Twill shoulder tape and tubular knit to keep it from stretching and twisting
- Ribbed collar that doesn’t get all baconed-out after two washes
- Crisp main print with DTF/DTG combo so the “STOP TOUCHING THE PAINT” hit stays sharp and readable
- Classic relaxed fit that works as workwear, streetwear, or “annoyed at the meet” wear
Care instructions (because you will get compound on it):
- Machine wash cold, tumble dry low
- Non-chlorine bleach if needed
- No ironing, no dry cleaning — leave the perfectionism for the paint, not the shirt
Buy it because people don’t listen.
Wear it because sometimes the T-shirt needs to say it louder than you can.
