-
Rinse: Gently rinse the garment in lukewarm water until all the soap is out. Avoid wringing or pulling the material.
-
Squeeze: Gently squeeze the water out of the garment without wringing it. Optionally lay it flat on a towel and roll the towel up to press out excess water.
-
Dry on a hanger: Hang your garment on a wide hanger or lay it flat on a dry towel to dry. Gently stretch the garment into shape while it is still damp.
