Care Instructions for Hanford Junior Falcons Apparel
Proper care of your Junior Falcons apparel will ensure that the prints remain vibrant and intact for a long time. Follow these steps carefully:Washing Instructions
- Turn Inside Out: Always turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the printed design.
- Machine Wash Cold: Use cold water (maximum 30°C or 86°F) to prevent the print from cracking or fading.
- Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a gentle, color-safe detergent. Avoid bleach or detergents with harsh chemicals.
- Wash on Delicate Cycle: Select a gentle cycle with minimal agitation to reduce stress on the print.
- Do Not Overload: Avoid washing the garment with heavy or abrasive items (e.g., jeans or towels) that could damage the print.
Drying Instructions
- Air Dry When Possible: Lay the garment flat or hang it to air dry in a shaded area, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Tumble Dry (Optional): If machine drying is necessary, use the lowest heat setting or a no-heat air-dry cycle. Overheating can damage the film.
- Avoid Wrinkling: If the garment wrinkles, do not iron the printed area directly.
Ironing Instructions
- Turn Inside Out: If ironing is necessary, turn the garment inside out.
- Use a Low Heat Setting: Set the iron to a low temperature and avoid direct contact with the print.
- Use a Press Cloth: Place a thin cotton cloth or parchment paper between the iron and the print to prevent melting.
General Tips
- Avoid Fabric Softeners: These can interfere with the adhesion of the print to the fabric.
- Do Not Dry Clean: The chemicals used in dry cleaning may damage the print.
- Store Properly: Keep garments folded or hung in a cool, dry place to prevent the prints from sticking or cracking over time.
By following these care instructions, your custom-made Junior Falcons apparel will stay in excellent condition for as long as possible.
