Matters needing attention
1, excluding washing powder
Poultry feathers in down jackets are made of protein fiber, so it is not allowed to use these strong alkaline detergents and soaps to clean them. Remember not to use enzyme washing powder, which will cause the clothes to be stiff after washing and drying. It is best to choose a special down jacket cleaner to reduce damage.
2. The water temperature should not be too high.
Soak the down jacket in cold water to make the inside and outside of the down jacket fully moist. The water temperature should not be too high, below 30℃, which is similar to the hand temperature. Warm water should also be used for washing.
3. Never twist.
Soak the down jacket and start cleaning. Don't rub dirty clothes with your hands. Brush important parts and easily overlooked places with a soft brush or an old toothbrush, and then rinse them twice with clean water. After washing, put your hands opposite each other and squeeze the water out along the cloth.
Extended data:
Traditionally, down jackets can't be dry-cleaned, because dry-cleaning is easy to wash off the grease on the surface of down jackets, and after removing the grease, down jackets are easy to become brittle and deteriorate. It is generally recommended to wash down jackets. When washing, consumers should carefully read the label inside the down jacket.
If the washing label shows that it can be washed by machine or gently by hand, you can choose the washing and hand washing procedures of the washing machine for machine washing. At the same time, we should choose neutral laundry detergent for cleaning, and don't use washing powder, because most washing powder is alkaline, which will also wash off the grease on down and reduce the warmth.
The drum washing machine is recommended. The pulsator washing machine is prone to problems. When you throw the down jacket into the washing machine, you will find that the down jacket has been floating on the water, and it is difficult to soak every part when washing by pulsator. The drum washing machine keeps the clothes in a rotating state, and the water can impact every part evenly.
