A Guide For Caring For Your Clothes This Summer – Swim Suit Care Tips & More!

Pilgrim Dry Cleaners • May 30, 2018

Summer is just around the corner and as the temps start to heat up we will sweat more and use more deodorant, but did you know that it can be damaging to your clothes? Make sure you don’t put on more than you need and always let deodorant dry before putting on your garments. Suntan lotions and sunblock can also stain or damage your clothes. Try to avoid contact with your clothing and wash hands after application. Another major enemy to clothing in the summer is chlorine. After swimming make sure to rinse your suit as soon as possible and follow the care instructions on the label. Self-tanners and insect repellents with alcohols can also damage clothing as well. Pilgrim Dry Cleaners can ease your worries this summer and keep your favorite items looking their best!
