Workshop Map: Fluids, Contact Points and Wash Routes

Three lists shape every garment here: what gets on it, where, and how it is washed. Point at a fluid to see where it lands.
  • Engine and gear oilThe most common stain: chest, cuffs and thighs.
  • GreaseChassis and bearing grease, pressed in at knees, forearms and seat.
  • Brake fluidGlycol-based; it can soften some print inks and transfer adhesives.
  • ATF and power-steering fluidDyed red or amber; a coloured mark on light fabric.

  • Diesel and hydraulic oilTrucks, buses, plant and farm machinery.
  • Parts-cleaner solventAt the parts washer and on rags: cuffs, chest and anything wiped.
  • Brake dust and road dirtGround into knees and seat from the floor and the creeper.
Fluid colours for reference.

Industrial laundry

A laundry service collects the uniforms and washes them hot with alkaline detergents.

On-site washers

The shop or depot runs its own commercial machines.

Take-home

Technicians wash their uniforms in a domestic machine at home.

Each workshop below combines these fluids, contact points and wash routes in its own way, and that combination decides the fabric, finish, logo method and construction.
Send the fluids your technicians handle
03Repair & quick-lube chains

Auto Shop Uniforms for Repair and Quick-Lube Chains

For repair chains, tyre and service centres and quick-lube chains running many shops on one brand: mechanic uniforms in their heaviest daily use.

01

The constraint

One brand look across every shop, worn by a workforce that turns over steadily.

02

What gets on it

Engine oil from drain plugs and filters, grease, brake fluid, solvent on the cuffs; mostly chest, forearms and knees.

03

How it is worn

Shirts with flat-front or cargo pants, short-sleeve coveralls in oil-change bays, polos for advisors. Logo embroidered in polyester thread, the name on a sewn oval patch. A laundry service collects every garment.

04

The garment changes hands

When a technician leaves, the shirts go back into stock with a new name patch; garment and logo stay. So the logo must outlast the full industrial wash life, and the finish must keep releasing oil.

05

Between deliveries

New starters go on the re-order run, packed per person and labelled by shop; spare name patches can be ordered alone.

06

Where the week ends

Each shop's rack holds clean shirts with the logo intact, the laundry bag is filling, and a re-issued shirt waits with its new name.

The auto service chain program on our custom work shirts page runs on this pattern. Send your shop count and laundry route
04Oil test

Custom Mechanic Uniforms Tested Against Oil, Brake Fluid and Solvent

How a mechanic uniform is built for oil, grease, brake fluid and solvent, from the fabric to the logo, and what you receive as proof before bulk is cut.

  1. Thread, backing, density, film, temperature, dwell and pressure are tuned; the piece is re-tested.
  2. A second failure moves the logo to a different method, for example from a transfer to embroidery.
  3. You hear about it before the decision is made.
Our in-house drip test: each fluid sits on the logo for 1 h, is wiped off, and the piece is washed once to ISO 15797. Pass = no edge lift, cracking or colour bleed, colour change grade 4 or better. Commercial fluids of the types you name; nothing to ship. Example of the failure route.

01Fabric

65/35 poly-cotton: the polyester holds shape and colour through hot alkaline laundry washes, the cotton keeps a warm bay bearable. Shrinkage within 3% to ISO 5077.

02Colour

Navy, charcoal, black or dark grey, so the trace a wash leaves does not show. A light brand colour becomes two-tone, darker where oil lands.

Example colours
Close-up of a wordless logo embroidered in polyester thread on charcoal twill

03Logo method

Polyester thread on cut-away backing by default: no film or ink for brake fluid or solvent to soften. No screen print on chest or cuffs; transfers on industrial-launderable film only. Decoration methods

04Who tests, at which stage

The colour lab technician grades the fabric; line QC runs the drip test and records it with the logo set-up; the QC manager reviews both before your sample ships. Laundry-service programs repeat ISO 15797 × 50 on pre-production pieces, inside the bulk window.

Sample pack laid out on a table: fabric swatch, grey scale card, before and after photos and a test record sheet

05What you receive

TM130 grade per fabric, drip-test before and after photos per logo, the wash-test record (ISO 15797 or ISO 6330 × 50, ISO 105-C06 grade 4) and the logo method per garment, kept for re-orders.

06If a fabric or logo fails

A fabric that misses the grade is not cut: it is re-finished or replaced. A failing logo is tuned and re-tested, then moved to another method; you hear first.

Logos stay readable and garments stay presentable through oil, brake fluid and the laundry, proven before a single bulk piece is cut. Ask for the drip-test photos with your sample plan
05Dealership service

Custom Mechanic Work Shirts for Dealership Service Departments

For the service and aftersales departments of dealership groups, often across several brands and showrooms.
  1. 01

    The constraint

    Technicians walk the vehicle back through the handover area. The workshop uniform is seen by the customer.

  2. 02

    What gets on it

    Lighter oil than a quick-lube bay: service grease, brake fluid, ATF that leaves a red or amber mark, brake dust on the knees.

  3. 03

    How it is worn

    Concealed-snap shirts and covered-rivet pants, because technicians lean on customers' doors all day. Advisors wear same-colour polos with the dealership logo.

  4. 04

    Retired before it wears out

    A mark that passes in a repair bay fails at the handover desk, so shirts leave service early. Soil-release and a dark or two-tone build decide how long a shirt stays presentable; the concealed front decides whether it scratches paint.

  5. 05

    Between deliveries

    Replacement shirts ordered per technician, stitched from the recorded logo settings and dyed to the same retained lab dip.

  6. 06

    Where the week ends

    Every technician has a clean spare on the hook, the handover area has seen no oil marks, and retired shirts are counted for the next re-order.

06Fleet depots

Mechanic Coveralls for Fleet and Logistics Maintenance Depots

Mechanic coveralls, work pants and jackets for depots maintaining trucks, buses, vans and trailers for logistics, transit and fleet operators.

01The constraint

Large vehicles, a lot of underbody work, and a yard where vehicles move.

02What gets on it

Diesel, engine and gear oil, chassis grease, hydraulic oil from tail lifts and tippers, road dirt. The creeper greases the back and seat; the floor takes the knees.

03How it is worn

A coverall zipped over own clothes, or cargo pants and a work shirt; insulated jackets for cold bays; a Class 2 vest or Class E pants in the yard (safety vests). Own washers.

04Worn through before it stains out

Creeper work and kneeling wear knees, seat and back faster than oil marks them. Reinforcement, the action back and triple-needle seams decide how long a coverall lasts; charcoal or navy hides the diesel the washer leaves.

05Between deliveries

Re-orders by depot, packed per technician, cartons labelled with the depot. A technician who moves keeps the same name patch and sizes; only the carton label changes.

06Where the week ends

Coveralls back on the depot hooks after the wash, knees intact, yard vests hanging beside them.

Send your depot list
07Construction

Knee Reinforcement, Triple-Needle Seams and Paint-Safe Fronts

The same construction details on every mechanic uniform, set on the pattern by the pattern room and checked at first piece.
Who checks it
The pattern room lead signs the pattern. Line QC checks the first piece on each line against the approved sample for knee position, bartacks, fastening and pocket layout. The QC manager signs the AQL 2.5 final inspection before bulk ships.
What you receive
A build spec sheet per style naming fabric, finish, knee and seam construction, fastening, pockets and logo positions, signed with the sample. Re-orders are cut from the same sheet, CAD pattern and marker file.

01Knees

A second twill panel over the knee, open as a knee-pad pocket, placed per size on the graded pattern. The pad comes from your PPE supplier.

02Seams and bartacks

Triple-needle inseam, outseam, seat and crotch. Bartacks at pocket mouths, belt loops, the crotch join and the fly end.

03Coverall cut

Action back for reaching into an engine bay, elastic back waist, two-way zipper, snap or hook-and-loop cuffs. Elbow panels on long sleeves on request.

04Pockets

Chest pockets with a pen slot; rule, cargo and phone pockets; every mouth bartacked. Logos stay clear of flaps, stitched before assembly near a pocket.

05Paint-safe fronts

Concealed snap plackets on shirts, concealed zippers on coveralls and jackets, covered rivets, no exposed metal on the front body or belt area, and name patches sewn flat with no pins.

Select a photo to enlarge it.
08Heavy equipment & field

Heavy Equipment and Field Service Uniforms Washed at Home

For heavy equipment dealers' service departments, plant hire repair workshops, agricultural machinery teams and mobile field mechanics.
01The constraint
Much of the work happens on site, outdoors, away from the workshop.
02What gets on it
Hydraulic oil, grease from pins and bushings, diesel, solvent for cleaning parts in the field, mud and dust.
03How it is worn
Coveralls or bib overalls over a work shirt, or cargo pants, plus an insulated jacket or softshell for cold mornings. Logo on chest and sleeve.
04Solvent meets the logo; the wash is at home
Solvent on rags and hands reaches the chest logo and cuffs, and a domestic wash is cooler and shorter than an industrial one. The drip test and the domestic wash test carry the most weight here.
05Between deliveries
Re-orders follow the season, packed per technician and labelled by branch or van, with a care label for a home machine.
06Where the week ends
The coverall comes out of the home machine with the logo flat and the cuffs intact, and goes back into the service van.

10One spec

One Colour Spec for Shirts, Pants, Coveralls and Jackets

Four or more garments in different fabrics, made as one uniform.

One colour

Each fabric is dipped to your one Pantone and lands within ΔE2000 2.0 of it. The set is approved together under D65 daylight and re-read under warm illuminant A. Each fabric keeps its own retained dip; re-orders match it at ΔE 1.0 or less. Colour continuity

One logo set-up per garment type

Digitized once, set up per garment type and kept on file, so next year's coverall carries this year's logo. Full method: custom work shirts.

One item list

Each role with its garments, style codes, dip ID per fabric, logo record, name yes or no, and sizes. Any change opens a new version you re-sign.

One name, one font

The same font, size and thread colour on shirt, coverall and jacket, from one signed spelling proof.

One pack per person

Shirts, pants, coverall and jacket packed together, labelled with name, size and shop or depot, so each site unpacks straight onto its hooks.

One technician's pack: a work shirt, work pants, a coverall and a jacket in the same charcoal, folded together with a plain label
