MESSI FC BARCELONA UCL 2014/15 Retro Jersey
To properly wash a polyester jersey, follow these steps:
Check Care Label: Always start by reading the care label for specific washing instructions.
Pre-Treat Stains: If there are any stains, apply a small amount of mild detergent directly to the area and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes.
Use Cold Water: Fill your washing machine with cold water, as hot water can damage polyester and cause colors to fade.
Select Gentle Cycle: Choose a gentle cycle on your washing machine to minimize agitation, which can help protect the jersey’s fabric and prints.
Add Detergent: Use a mild, liquid detergent that is suitable for synthetic fabrics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can harm the material.
Wash Separately: It's best to wash the jersey separately from other clothing, especially items that may have zippers or rough textures that can snag the fabric.
Drying: After washing, avoid wringing the jersey out. Instead, gently press out excess water or lay it flat on a clean towel. Air-dry it away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Avoid the Dryer: Do not use a dryer, as high heat can warp and damage the synthetic fibers.
Following these steps will help maintain the integrity and appearance of your polyester jersey for a long time.
