Tips For Making Your Clothes Last Longer And Look Their Best!

Tell your cleaner everthing you know about a stain.
Even if the stain is obvious, tell your dry cleaner everything you know about it, including the staining substance, any home stain removal attempts, even water and how long ago the stain occurred.

Don't allow a stain to set in.
The sooner a stained garment is cleaned, the more likely the stain can be removed. Do not iron stained or soiled clothes as it will set the stain and drive the soil deeper into the fabric. Never rub a stain, only blot it.

Tell your cleaner about any 'invisible' stains.
Sometimes stains seem to disappear when they dry (white wine, soft drinks, etc). It's important to point out ALL stains to your cleaner. They'll know how to treat the invisible or lightly-stained areas prior to cleaning.

Don't store your clothes in a plastic bag.
The plastic bag your dry cleaner uses is only to protect your garments on your way home. If you leave it on, it causes humidity to condense in the bag, weakening the fibers, and even causing discoloration. Have items cleaned prior to storing them and do not keep them in places where there is excessive heat or moisture (attics or basements).

Have matching pieces cleaned together.
Matching pieces in suits, skirts, shirts, and even drapes and bedspreads should be cleaned at the same time. Normal fading may occur; even a slight change could ruin a set.
