Hey guys,
I am in process of getting some t-shirt with my logo and business slogan done. What kind of color would work the best, considering that the job is car wash, white would not make sense? I want to be able to keep the logo style the same, my trailer is white and logo with black letters.
I was thinking maybe grey, but I am not sure.
Post some pictures if you can.
All advices are appreciated
 
How about Khaki with dark brown lettering.

Light enough to not kill you in the sun, but just dark enough to not show splatter dirt, ect, as easily.

I hate how car washers look wearing soaked wet white t-shirts with dirt stains everywhere.
 
I have a couple white shirts (bad decision). I will be getting some navy shirts later on after I get a new logo. I usually wear the logo polo shirts and some nice jeans. its looks professional to me!

I have light gray shirts with black and burgandy lettering and my logo. In the summer, I will get darker color shirts since you'll get dirtier and sweat more.

Get an apron. It will look fruity, but it is great.

I should have been more specific.
We have black t-shirts and black aprons. We wear clean looking dress/work pants, runners, and the black shirt. For paint work, or if we are wearing a different shirt, we put on the apron.
Black needs to be washed using the fancy black soap or it fades quickly.
 
I got light grey tshirts with a red and white logo.

Don't get anything dark cause you'll be hating them come middle of summer.

I end up taking my t-shirt off half the time anyways, gotta love this florida weather. Got the ol' wifebeater on under them.
 
How About something a lil more comfortable,it could be Chiffon or something of your choice :wink:
 
OK,
guys I got some grey t-shirts soon I am going to get them "lettered"
I will post some pics later.

Also looking for some shorts, maybe kacki color, I am not sure,
 
I have a couple of navy blue polo shirts with my logo on the pocket for
business meetings or important stuff . Then some grey t-shirts with red and black logo on the front and back.

The only problem is just like the guys are saying after a couple of months the stains don't come out. So its up to you if you don't mind buying new shirts every 3 to 4 months . but with highly visible advertising.

Another tip is to give away some t-shirts to your friends . They feel loved and you get more advertising.
