HOW TO ~MOVE STA~S

1.Try to remove stains as soon as possible. The fresher the stain, the easier it is to remove.

2.Before attempting to remove any stain, take these steps:

●Find the fabric and the finish in the chart on the next page, and use only recommended methods.

●Check the care label instructions that came with the garment.

●Test stain removal product on a hidden inside seam or on a sample of the material.

●Avoid use of hot water on unknown stains. It can set some stains.

3.Follow stain removal with a thorough rinsing.

Stain Removal Hint—Using Chlorine Bleach for White and Bleachable Fabrics

Mix 1/4 cup (60 ml) chlorine bleach with one gallon (3.8 liters) of cool water—approximately 80°F. (27°C.)—in a sink or pan. Soak stained area for 5 minutes and launder in washer.

The Case of the “Invisible” Stain

Food or cooking oils on your synthetic garments may cause stains which are virtually invisible and which you may not notice as you put your clothes into the washer.

If these stains are not completely removed in the wash, the oily spots may pick up dirt from the wash water. Then they will become very visible and you may think they were caused by the wash cycle itself.

Once These Spots Become Visible, How Can You Remove Them?

●Rub in undiluted liquid detergent and let stand 30 minutes.

●Rewash using hottest water the fabric can stand.

How Can You Prevent These “After-You-Wash” Shins?

●Increase the amount of detergent normally used.

●Increase water temperature where fabric will permit. “ Wash synthetic garments more often.
