We all know that a clean and tidy suit can well reflect a man's mental outlook and give people a good impression, but we also know that washing a suit is also a very distressing thing. Many friends feel very helpless about this. In fact, we have some small tricks to help us solve these annoying troubles. Let us learn how to wash a suit.

Our suits can be divided into dry cleaning and wet cleaning. For these two situations, we have to choose according to the situation. If only part of the suit is dirty, we can choose dry cleaning. Otherwise, we have to choose wet cleaning. The correct choice is beneficial to our maintenance of the suit.

How to wash a suit - dry cleaning: Dry cleaning is mainly suitable for cleaning a small number of stains. Before washing, you should check which parts are stained. Then, spray it with water, add a small amount of high-end soap and laundry detergent, brush it with a brush, and then rinse off the soap, laundry detergent and the like. Otherwise, some spots will appear in some places after drying. After washing, dry it until it is 70% dry, place it on a flat felt surface, then use some clean material that is not too dry to lay it flat on top of the clothes to be ironed, and use an iron to completely iron the suit. Wet clean, wash the clothes thoroughly with water. The method is basically the same as dry cleaning. How to wash a suit, the choice of detergent is also very important. The cleaning agent can be "silk and wool detergent". Do not use a towel as a pad when ironing. It is best to choose a cloth that does not fade. Whenever you are not wearing your suit, you must take out the contents of your pockets and use a fine-bristled brush to sweep away the dust on your clothes in a clockwise motion. This can prevent the suit from changing color and also prevent it from being contaminated by dust. If you cannot register the clothes in time, you can usually use the folding method to store them. After folding the clothes, store them in a plastic bag, or you can wrap mothballs in clean paper and store them together.

How to wash a suit - wet cleaning: When the suit is severely contaminated and not suitable for dry cleaning, it must be soaked in cold water for about half an hour before washing. Squeeze out the water with a washing machine and put it in 40°C neutral laundry detergent (2 spoons per piece) or soap flake liquid for 20 minutes. Do not soak it in hot water or use alkaline soap. Take out the clothes and drain the water. When brushing, pay attention to "three flat and two even", that is, the washboard should be flat, the clothes should be spread flat, the brushing path should be flat, and the force should be even. The key points for washing are: lapel, front, hem, pockets, cuffs and shoulders for jackets; waist and pockets, front and back trouser pieces and corners for trousers. After brushing, put the clothes back into the water and repeat several times, then squeeze out the detergent, wash them with 30 grams of vinegar and some warm water, and then wash them with cold water. Flatten each part and place in a cool place to dry, away from heat sources or direct sunlight.

Only in this way can we better maintain the suits, show the spiritual side of us men, and also contribute to our success.
