How To Wash Swimsuits Properly?

Swimsuit

Many people do not pay attention to the washing method of bathing suits. For convenience, throw the used swimsuit directly into the washing machine and machine wash. No one knows how harmful this is to swimsuits. The correct cleaning method can extend the life of the swimsuit.

Misconception

Do not use harsh detergents such as washing powder, detergent, or bleach to clean your swimsuit, otherwise it will easily fade the swimsuit.

How to clean a new swimsuit for the first time

Because swimsuits are more elastic and flexible, many people think that as long as the swimsuit is soaked in clean water or a little detergent, then the swimsuit is rubbed vigorously, then twisted dry, and dried under the eyes. This method is quite wrong. How to wash the newly bought swimsuit? First of all, we must understand that seawater contains salt, but after using swimsuits, it is best to wash them with clean water as soon as possible, and do not use a washing machine.

During the washing process, make sure that the chlorine in the swimsuit has been completely eliminated. You can smell the bleach or detergent to see if the smell is eliminated. If you still feel a bit of smell, you can soak your swimsuit in a little water. After rinsing, use a towel to dry the swimsuit as much as possible.

The last thing to pay attention to is not to wring out or rub the swimsuit vigorously, so as not to damage the appearance, but also use a clip to clamp a corner to cool the swimsuit, which will deform the swimsuit. Remember not to use hair dryers or irons to dry and iron your swimsuits. Don't get stuffed in plastic bags after the clothes are dried, but hang them in the closet.

The correct way to clean swimsuits

Cleaning

Swimsuits are elastic and easily deformed when washed in a washing machine, so be sure to wash them by hand. Put it in warm water at about 30°C first. The water temperature should not be too high, otherwise it will damage the fabric.

Pour an appropriate amount of laundry detergent in the water and soak the swimsuit for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, gently rub the swimsuit with your hands, then wash it off with clean water.

Dry

Be careful when drying, do not hang the sling on the hanger to dry, otherwise the sling will be stretched. Folding the swimsuit in half on the hanger is the correct drying method. It must be remembered that swimsuits cannot be exposed to the sun or dried. You can also not use a hair dryer to dry, just dry naturally.

Tip: Girls’ swimsuits usually have a sponge pad. To prevent it from deforming, we can not use a washing machine to dry it, and we can not wring it out. 

The correct method is: roll up the swimsuit with a towel and press it to absorb most of the water, and finally dry it.
