Whiskering Process:
Various methods are designed to create this impression on jeans.
Such as:-
▪ Mostly rubber balloons are available with different pattern
designs. Garments are mounted on balloons and filled with air
to get impressions of whiskers. Garment is scrubbed over
pattern carefully with sand paper on engraved pattern lines.
This operation requires high skilled labor and who can handle
uniformity and sequence in whisker line. Fabric may damage
during rubbing if care is not taken. This method is famous for
high quality and cost effectiveness.
Sand Blasting:
Sand blasting is the process of scrubbing off the garment by blowing high-
speed air mixed with very fine particles of sand. This is a very successful
and most widely used process for fashion articles. When the surface area
of the garment is blasted, white cotton appears beneath the blasted area
and the effect appearing is very similar to the worn out jeans. Sand blast
provides a very uniform result, which cannot be achieved with its
alternates. Its specialty is the merging effect that is blended with such a
beauty that it has no difference with natural effect.
