Steps On How To Properly Clean Your Faux Fur Bedspread

By Jason Campbell


Faux furs are synthetic fiber materials in which the purpose of production is for resembling the original fur. Clothing is the most common use for these materials. But aside from clothing, these have been used already for many different purposes which became very popular because there is already an increase in the promotion of animal rights. Some animal welfare organizations have also been claiming that these are using animal friendly materials for clothing.

To clean these fake furs may be done through the use of many different ways including by the hands, by the washing machine, and by the dry cleaner. The three methods will depend upon the provided specifications on an item. But when you are not really sure on the specifications, it would be better to directly ask the manufacturer for the avoidance of damaging the material. The following are the 3 methods and their steps to clean the faux fur bedspread properly.

Machine wash faux fur. Before you immediately wash the material, make sure to check its tag. Most of the items are being provided by the manufacturer with a tag wherein all the important specifications and instructions are written. Though it will depend on you whether you are going to follow those instructions or not, these will still include some important tips which you need to notice.

The tag may contain these following contents, washing instructions, if the washing procedures are similar to colored items, or whether the colors are going to fade out. Standardized symbols may sometimes be provided as well and these will indicate how the item is cared for. And therefore, having these tags can really help in knowing the next steps to do.

Place the item inside the washing machine. Do not wash any other items together with the fur. If the material is part of a garment, be sure to turn it inside and out to avoid the material from being worn out. Be sure that you are setting the machine right. Use a cold water and set it into a delicate wash cycle. The machine will then be turned on. Add an average amount of a mild type of laundry detergent.

And also, see to it that the setting of your machine is the least spin agitation. If the rinse cycle started, place a fabric softener and rinse it using cold water. And after the washing cycle, remove the bedspread, shake it for the removal of excess water. By rolling your item to a thick towel, the water may also be absorbed. Pull it carefully then turn it into the original dimension and shape for avoiding damage.

Hand wash faux fur. Make sure that you are making use of the right materials for hand washing. Use a lukewarm or cold water. This can help in maintaining the shape and the texture of the furs. Use only the mild laundry soap which is designed for a hand washing.

Spot cleaning technique may also be used. This technique can make the item last longer while maintaining its original texture. Mild detergent should be utilized when cleaning specific areas. Avoid on scrubbing too rough to avoid some damages. Rinse it using cold water then dry it.

Drying the fake fur. The best suggestion for this process rather than the use of electric dryer would be air drying. An areas that is well ventilated is recommended for air drying. The outside area would be better and adding a fan as well to speed the drying process.
