Dry Cleaning - Is it For You?

With dry cleaning, a regular soap solution and a solvent called perc is used instead of water. Yes it is pretty cool because surprisingly, it is more environmental-friendly but keep in mind that not everything can be dry cleaned. Knowing what type of fabric or materials that can be dry cleaned will save you from having horror stories in the future. in general, most clothes can be dry cleaned in moderation however, high drying temperatures and chemicals used in the whole process can directly damage your clothes or it can slowly decrease their lifespan. Sweaters, cashmeres and knits are not really good candidates for dry cleaning. If you accidentally stain your knit, you can just hand wash it with mild soap and warm water. This is the only way to maintain the softness and luster of the material. What about dress shirts? Sure you can dry clean them but not so often because the fabric fibers will deteriorate and the chemicals will give your shirt that yellowish tint. You can just machine wash your dress shirts and hang them dry. If you have to take your dress shirts to the dry cleaner, tell them you want your shirts hand-ironed instead of machine-pressed. Avoid using starch when ironing clothes because it lessens the lifespan.

Suits should undergo minimal dry cleaning every year if you want to extend its lifespan. Experts suggest dry cleaning your suit once per season. If you get any stains or spots, you can clean it by hand using a mild detergent and warm water. For wrinkles, stretches and creases, you can buy a steamer. Clothes steamers are very use to use and they make stretched-out or creased parts regain their natural shape and will make them look good as new.
