Sure thing! The jpg file had a levels mid tone bump, a touch of sharpening with the Total Rad's set called Boutwell Glasses with the layer at 20%,

Ah.  Well, take that rubbish off, and post the 100% crop again.

Now I'm interested. I was in your class with 2010 settings (so it's been a while). This is Adobe's level of sharpening upon opening a RAW file. Should I be setting it all at 0 and then making adjustments for each image?

Here is the updated RAW and a 100%.

Hmmm ... odd.  It's nowhere near as strong when I edit it.

Can you click on the blue link at the bottom of ACR.  In the window that pops up, there's a "Sharpen for" option.  That should be set to "None" at all times.  I'm wondering if yours isn't set to None?

Well, I'm stumped.  When I edited your raw file, the moire is much less, and it's really easy to remove.

But for yours, we'll have to do it the hard way.

First, add a Dodge and Burn layer.  Don't do anything to it yet, just let it sit there.

Next, add a Solid Color layer of the good shirt colour.  Set that layer's blend mode to "Color", then mask it to the shirt.  That should take care of a lot of the moire, but a few visible stripes will remain in the worst areas.

So return to the D&B layer and gently correct those striped areas.
