to contents ↑General washing tips:
- Features of washing the product can be found in the label (label). The label will indicate the temperature and the optimal washing mode. In addition, by the special notation on the label one can also judge how to perform certain actions correctly, in particular: is it possible to soak and wring the blanket, how to dry it. Our subtleties will help you quickly figure out our table and character decoding.
- If it was not possible to find information on the washing features on the label, then select the “Delicate” mode, and the water temperature should not exceed 40 degrees. Why so - read in our separate publication “Delicate washing - what is it?”.
- Dry the syntepon blanket before washing on the street or battery, be sure to check the surface for integrity. If gaps are found, repair them.
- Before general washing, wipe the areas of greatest contamination with a sponge and soapy water.
- Use liquid detergents for washing. There are special shampoos for washing that will perfectly cope with the task. All liquid detergents dissolve well in water and are qualitatively washed out of the fabric. Conventional powders can leave white stains and stains on the fabric after the product dries. Well proven Ariel liquid powders. But just look carefully at the packaging to buy the original.
- Do not wash the padding pad in hot water and remember, the warmer the water, the less time the blanket should be in it.
- Do not use any bleach or conditioner.
- Do not subject the product to unnecessary mechanical stress, as any, even such unpretentious material, has a tensile strength.
Important! Before pushing the blanket into the machine, make sure that its weight does not exceed the limit of the permissible load limit. Otherwise, repair of household appliances will cost much more than buying a new blanket. If the product fills the entire drum, then it is more advisable to seek dry cleaning, because the blanket must not only be “crammed” into the washing machine, but also soaked, thoroughly washed and rinsed.
Hand or machine wash?
As soon as it comes to a synthetic winter blanket, the number of supporters of hand-washing immediately decreases. Of course, the process of hand washing is more gentle, and all the impurities can be removed more thoroughly, but even the healthiest men can’t lift a blanket that has been saturated with water, let alone the fairer sex.
Therefore, it is better to neglect the small pluses of hand washing for the sake of a hefty plus - the automatic operation of the machine, in which human participation is minimized.
Handwash
If for some reason (for example, a sintepon blanket does not fit in the drum), you still have to do manual cleaning of the product, then:
- First clean the most contaminated areas with a stiff brush and liquid detergent.
- Then soak the product for 30 minutes.
- For washing such a dimensional product, invite an assistant, as the product becomes too heavy when wet.
- Thoroughly rinse the washed blanket and wring it out gently.
- Spread out on a flat surface, and use a bath towel to remove excess moisture.
- Dry fully expanded in vivo.
Important! When rinsing, add a few drops of wine vinegar to the water. If the sintepon blanket turns yellow or has lost its original color, then, when rinsing, put a slice of lemon in the water. This will refresh the color.
Washing machine
Many housewives ask: is it possible to wash a blanket from sintepon in a washing machine? Not only possible, but also necessary, the main thing is that the drum of the machine allows this to be done.
Important! Another condition - the machine must have a suitable washing mode. If the control panel has the designation “Delicate wash”, then feel free to choose it, you can choose the mode “hand wash” or “duvet”. This mode is also conditionally suitable for washing products from synthetic winterizer.
Once you understand the mode, move on to the process itself.
Step-by-step instruction:
- Twist the product so that it fits in the drum.
- Type in a bottle of water and spill the material well so that there are no dry places.
- Place the product in the duvet cover.
- Push the product into the drum.
- Close the door of the washing machine.
- Pour detergent into the cuvette.
- Set the desired washing mode.
- Run the process.
- Remove the washed blanket and shake it well. The delicate washing mode also involves gentle spinning, in which most of the moisture will be removed by the machine, and you do not have to pull out a heavy wet blanket.
Advice:
- So that the sintepon does not stray into one corner of the product during rotation in the drum, put 2-3 balls for tennis or special stones in the machine.
- If the product does not have stitches, then quilt it yourself so that the sintepon does not stray into the total mass.
- If you thought that after washing the product lost its shape, then do not make hasty conclusions, but wait for it to dry completely.
- If the sintepon blanket has persistent, stubborn dirt that cannot be removed by machine wash, then dry the product. Specialists can work a miracle and save even the most hopeless things.
