UNDERSTANDING FABRIC CARE LABELS

The symbols on labels of your garments will help you in choicing the suitable wash program, the right temperature,
wash cycles, and ironing methods. Don’t forget to give a glance to these useful indications !

Perspiration

Wash or sponge stain thoroughly with warm water and detergent
paste. If perspiration has changed the color of the fabric, restore it
by treating with ammonia or vinegar. Apply ammonia to fresh stains;
rinse with water. Apply vinegar to old stains; rinse with water.

Rust and Iron

Apply commercial rust remover, according to manufacturer’s
directions. Rinse. Or, if safe for fabric, boil stained article in solution
of 4 teaspoons of cream of tartar to 1 pint water.

Scorch

Rinse or soak in cold water. Work detergent into stain. Rinse.
Bleach, if necessary. Stain may be impossible to re move.

Urine

Soak in cool water. If stain is dry, work a detergent paste into the
spot then rinse. If necessary, bleach.

Shoe

Polish Scrape off as much as possible. Pretreat with a detergent
paste; rinse. If stain persists, sponge with rubbing alcohol (1 part
to 2 parts water) or turpentine. Remove turpentine by sponging
again with warm detergent solution or with alcohol. Bleach if
necessary.

Soft Drinks

Sponge with cold water, some stains are invisible when they have
dried, but turn brown when heated and may be impossible to
remove.

turpentine. Launder.
