You can not wash a cap in a typewriter. Here we need a special approach and a few tricks.
Favorite things become useless faster than others. This is one of the universal injustices. Caps wash more difficult than others, but do not rush to send dirty headgear in the garbage can. Layfhaker will tell how to give a baseball cap a second chance.
How to wash a cap
Soak the baseball cap in warm (not hot!) Water. Add a spoonful of laundry detergent or half a stain remover cap.
If there are very dirty places on the cap, rub them with a stain remover using an unnecessary toothbrush. In places with a pattern and at the seams wield the brush more carefully.
Leave the baseball cap to soak. If after a few hours the stains do not disappear, wipe them again with a stain remover.
Rinse the cap well in cool water. Now it remains to dry the hat.
Wrap a towel over the coffee can, put on a wet baseball cap. If you need a cap urgently, dry it with a hairdryer in a gentle way.
What not to do
Even if it was not possible to remove the stains, it is not worth resorting to extreme measures. They will finish the headgear.
- Do not use the washing machine. A spinning drum can help with spotting, but the pancake that forms after washing can hardly be worn outside during daylight hours.
- Do not wash the baseball cap in the dishwasher. Many clever men advise putting a cap on the shelf for glasses: here no drum will doubt it. But even if you decide to spoil the equipment and put laundry detergent in the dishwasher compartment, the rest of the dishwashing liquid will paint the headdress no worse than the usual bleach.
How to increase the service life of the cap
- Wear a baseball cap only on a clean head. Unwashed hair You can hide it under a headdress, but it will not add newness to it, but will only shorten an already short age.
- Do not touch the cap with your hands. On hands accumulates a lot of grease and dirt.
- Keep the cap in a closed cabinet with a scarf stuffed inside. This is enough to prevent the baseball cap from deforming and gathering dust.
Take care of things and let them serve as long as possible!
