Instruction manual
1
Check the tag information on the bike blanket manufacturer. It should indicate the features of caring for the product. Usually a loose and heavy cotton fabric is called a bike; it may also contain natural wool fibers or be completely woolen. It is necessary to wash the product, taking into account the characteristics of the material used.
2
Washing cotton blankets does not bring much trouble to housewives. This thing can be washed with any washing powder manually or scrolled in an automatic washing machine. The main thing is to check the permissible maximum load of the drum - perhaps the machine will not cope with a large-volume blanket.
3
Use delicate washing modes and fabric softener to keep the washed bike blanket soft. If your automatic machine has the program "Baby things", use it. Normal and delicate washings are also acceptable, at a temperature of no higher than 40 degrees.
4
Wash the bike with the content of wool fibers is possible only in a special gentle mode for wool, using special detergents. If there are spots on the blanket, or if the edge of the clog is very dirty, first wash the problem areas manually and treat with a suitable stain remover.
5
It is recommended to soak a heavily soiled bike blanket first in a cool solution of mild detergent for half an hour, and only then immerse it in a washing machine.
6
Dry the washed blanket in the washing machine at a low temperature, then let it dry at room temperature in the unfolded state. Spin can not be used - just roll the wet product into a roll (without twisting!), To get excess moisture.
7
Unhook the dried bike or iron it, heating the iron to 150 degrees. You just have to comb out the updated blanket thoroughly with a clothes brush on both sides to raise and fluff the soft pile.
note
According to the manufacturer's recommendations, some wool blankets are not allowed to be washed! Try cleaning the bike with a soft bristle brush and a thick soapy solution. Remove residual dirt with a foam sponge, periodically dipping it in clean water. If you failed to clean the delicate fabric yourself, you will have to hand over the product to dry cleaning.
