Down clothing cleaning method

When winter is cold, we will wear down jackets without exception. In the warm, do not forget to maintain, some time ago there was a family home with a washing machine to dehydrate the down jacket when the explosion happened, this is caused by the lack of knowledge about down jacket maintenance, today, we teach you how to wash down jackets :

Experience 1: In the inside of the down coat, there is a small label printed with maintenance and washing instructions. 90% of the down coats are marked as hand-washed. Do not dry-clean. The dry-cleaning medicine will affect the warmth and will also make the fabric aging. Machine-washing and spin-drying, and down jackets that have been twisted, can easily lead to inconsistency in the filling and make the clothes go out of shape, affecting warmth. Other down coats may be dry-cleaned if they are not dirty. Gently wipe the petrol with a towel at the neckline, cuffs, front placket, etc. After the oil is removed, wipe it with a dry towel and dip in the petrol. After the gasoline is evaporated, it can be worn.

Experience 2: Rinse the water temperature at 30 degrees. First down jacket soaked in cold water for 20 minutes, so that down jacket fully moist inside and outside. Dissolve the detergent in warm water of 30 degrees, then place the down jacket in it for a quarter of a minute, then gently scrub with a soft brush. Rinse also use warm water, which can help the detergent to fully dissolve in the water, allowing the down jacket to be rinsed more cleanly.

Experience 3: Use detergent concentration can not be too high. If you must use detergent to wash down jacket, usually two basins of water into 4 to 5 tablespoons of detergent is appropriate, if the concentration is too high, it is difficult to rinse clean, the remaining detergent in the down, will affect the bulkiness of the down, greatly reducing Warmth.

Experience 4: It is best to use neutral detergents. Neutral detergents have minimal damage to clothing and down products. If alkaline detergents are not rinsed cleanly, residual detergents can cause damage to down jackets and can easily leave white marks on clothing surfaces, affecting aesthetics. To remove residual alkaline detergent, add two tablespoons of vinegar in warm water after rinsing twice, soak the jacket down for a while and rinse. The vinegar neutralizes the alkaline detergent.
