How can you give a technical foul to a player who is following your instructions? That is not the intent of the rule, as you should know. The rule is intended to penalize showboating, unsportsmanlike acts, not for following the official's instructions. If it bothers you, be more careful in your instructions, like saying "Go back to your locker room and remove your undershirt", not just "Take your undershirt off".
