General Guidelines:
- Proper care will add years to your travel clothing.
- Be sure to follow label guidelines when caring for garments.
Synthetic Fabrics:
- Synthetic fabrics are sensitive to heat. If you need to use an iron, be careful! Use low heat or fabric might melt or shrink.
- Synthetic fabrics wash easily and dry quickly.
- To remove grease or oil stains, apply liquid detergent and allow it to soak in, prior to washing.
- Dry cleaning is best for bad stains.
- Tumble dry on low heat or line dry.
Natural Fabrics: (cotton)
- Cotton creases when washed, wrinkles when worn, and will need considerable ironing - yet it is by far one of the most comfortable fabrics.
- Cottons are not colorfast, so wash these items separately when new.
- Cotton also tends to shrink when washed - but can be pulled back into place after washing.
- Contact with acids (such as fruit juice) can weaken cotton if left for long periods of time. Wash out any staining immediately.
