Just because it says "Dry Clean Only" doesn't mean you have to! In this Mominar, I show you how to clean your dry-clean only items without having to pay for professional cleaning.

Good evening, I thank you for this video which I was looking for. Please a queston: my suits have been in the sotrage for about two years and have little bad smell, so what should I need to do to my chlothes to get rid of the smell, please. Best regards / Kaisy

@HowToLifeDrLJ 8 ай бұрын

Hi Kaisy, I would let them air out for a couple of days, preferably in the fresh air, if possible. That should help a lot. The cleaning cloth that comes with the at-home dry cleaning kit is lightly scented. It smells nice. That should take care of the problem. Good luck!

@@HowToLifeDrLJ Good morning Dr. Laura, and thank you so much for answering my question about the odor in my clothes. Yes Doctor, I'm just starting to follow your recommended step by step method. God Bless you Dr. Laura. P.S.I just subscribed to your very useful channel and activated the bell.

It seems the clothes are not being washed but just tossed in the dryer with a dryer sheet to smell good. But is it actually washing the clothes? Doesn't seem like it.

@HowToLifeDrLJ 3 жыл бұрын

Perhaps a better way of saying it is 'refreshed'. It does diminish dirt and smells for dry-clean only items. And what is more, It is a quick and inexpensive option for professional dry cleaning, which uses chemicals and does not involve water either.

@@HowToLifeDrLJ I have a question my shirt says Do not dry clean! Does this mean it's safe to wash and dry safely?

@HowToLifeDrLJ 3 жыл бұрын

@@calinewsdude this can be tricky. When the label specifically says Do Not Dry Clean, there could be a few reasons like the fabric or the dyes could be ruined by the chemical solvents. However, if the material is that delicate, a washing machine may be too rough for it as well. Are there any other instructions on how to clean it? If not, what is the material made of? How delicate is it? Usually, a gentle hand wash in cold water and line dry is okay, but if there is delicate beading or heavy dye, or it's waxed then you might only be able to spot clean it. If it is new, you can ask the store where you bought it or go to a dry cleaner and ask their opinion. The effort you make will depend on how important this shirt is to you. Good luck and let us know what happened.

And what heat setting should you dry clean your clothes on in the dryer?

@HowToLifeDrLJ 8 ай бұрын

You will just set it on Timed Dry. 20-30 minutes. Follow the instructions on the package.

Can you clean a dry clean a comforter with this method?

@HowToLifeDrLJ 2 ай бұрын

If it can fit inside the bag, you can refresh it. Most comforters can be machined washed. If the tag on yours says that you can, you can take it to a laundromat and use one of their big washers.

@dallionaire8947 5 ай бұрын

Does this work for men’s suits?

@HowToLifeDrLJ 5 ай бұрын

Yes. But it will not look like it will when it comes from the dry cleaner. It won't be pressed and crisp, especially if it is crumpled and dirty to start. But, this method will freshen it up and will be completely presentable. The product does come with a stain remover which allows you to spot clean any stains.

So no fear of the delicate clothes shrinking on medium heat?

It needs to be inside of the drycleaning bag. That will protect it from the hear.
