1. Manual cleaning: It is best to use manual cleaning, not a washing machine. When washing, pay attention to force and gentleness, do not rub hard, it is best to apply force evenly.
2. 30 degrees water temperature: the best water temperature is about 30 degrees, not too hot or too cold, otherwise it will damage the fabric of the clothes. Clean tap water should be used, as long as the water is over the clothes.
3. Professional dry cleaners: If there are a lot of stains such as silk clothes, which are difficult to clean manually, it is best to go to a large dry cleaner with good dry cleaning effect and good reputation;
4. Air-drying in the shade: The finished silk fabric can not be exposed to the sun, it is easy to fade and damage the color, so it should be air-dried naturally in the shade;
5. Do not wring after washing: Do not wring after washing. Lay the clothes neatly on a clean bath towel, and slowly roll up the bath towel from one end to absorb most of the water.

What kind of detergent is used for silk fabrics?

It is best to use a laundry detergent containing a softener. Because the washing powder contains too much alkali, it is easy to fade the silk. Even a liquid neutral detergent, although compared with washing powder, is not alkaline and does little damage to silk. However, it lacks the softness components required by silk protein fiber, so it tends to become hard after washing. It is recommended to use a special detergent for silk, which contains softeners. If not, detergents for wool and cashmere are also okay, because they are all the same protein fiber, similar in nature, and similar in washing requirements.

1. Attention to drying Silk clothes should not be directly exposed to the sun after washing, let alone drying, and should be dried in a cool place. Because ultraviolet rays tend to yellow and age silk clothes. In addition, silk clothes should not be twisted after washing, but should be gently shaken, and they should be air-dried on the reverse side, and then ironed when they are 70% dry.
2. Pay attention to the ironing method. It is recommended to use steam steaming when ironing, that is, do not put the iron directly on the clothes, lift it up slightly, and keep a certain distance from the clothes to keep the gloss and durability. The temperature of the iron should not be higher than 130°C, otherwise the silk garments will be damaged or "brittled", which will affect the wearing life. Do not spray water when ironing to avoid water stains and affect the appearance. If it is not ironed, you can put the garment in a plastic bag when it is 70% dry and smooth it with your hands; you can also dry it, fold it flat, put it in a plastic bag, seal it, and put it in the freezer for 12 hours. Frozen, can achieve no-iron effect.
3. Attention to collection and storage
(1) Silk fabrics cannot be sprayed with perfumes, fresheners and other items, and mothballs cannot be used when stored, because these things will cause discoloration and yellowing.
(2) Real silk clothes and tussah silk clothes cannot be placed together, because most of the raw materials of tussah silk clothes are fumigated with sulfur, which will discolor the silk clothes.
(3) Do not use iron hangers, and do not store them with easily dyed items to prevent rust pollution and dyed items from dyeing silk.
(4) Keep the space ventilated and dry during storage. If it is hidden in a humid or direct sunlight place, it is easy to grow mildew or fade.
