CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS FOR:

Silk washes beautifully with Eucalan. PJ's, sheets, and good blouses come out soft and keep their colour.

  • Use directions on the bottle for dosage.
  • Insert article to be washed and soak for 15 minutes (minimum).
  • Squeeze article gently to incorporate water and soap through fibres.
  • No need to rinse.
  • Pull article out of water and gently squeeze out excess water. Do not twist or ring.
  • Lay flat to dry on drying rack or clean dry towel.
  • Important: Dry all items out of direct heat and sunlight.
  • Iron while very damp with the iron on silk setting (med. heat).
  • Hang on a padded or plastic hanger with rounded shoulders to avoid dimpling.
