For the maintenance of outdoor clothing and equipment, we have to learn and study these conservation methods because we cherish it. Today Xiao Bian gave you a brief introduction on down jackets, jackets, quick-drying clothes, and outdoor shoes. After learning about it, everyone would quickly pick them up!
Down jacket
Because of the warning of prohibiting wet water on down jackets, many people do not wash their down jackets so easily. Down is a kind of velvet material with big interval and flexibility. Due to this characteristic, slight wetting will not affect its thermal insulation properties. Therefore, wetting the down is not the reason to completely lose the insulation function. Therefore, the down jacket can be wet and washable, and it is not as difficult as we imagined. It is slightly more troublesome than washing jeans.
cleaning method
Before cleaning, there are three things you need to prepare, low-fat soap, front-loading washing machine, and dryer. For soaps, you can also use ordinary detergents that can effectively remove the oil on the down jacket, but can not be completely rinsed clean. It is recommended to use cleaning agents for cleaning down jackets. I recommend using NikWax DownWash as a cleaning agent. Its effect is obvious. In addition, there are many kinds of effective down jacket cleaners on the market, all of which can be selected according to the situation and personal preference.
Next, prepare a front-loading washing machine. If not, a washing machine with low speed is also available. We've heard before that there are washing machines that wash down jackets out of the gap, so we're still recommending that we use a front-loading washing machine.
If your clothes do have spots (cuffs or neckline), you can spray the stain on the stain before cleaning. Use the ironing function of the washing machine, add an appropriate amount of cleaning agent, not excessive, because the residual cleaning agent can not be completely removed by rinsing. If your clothes are really dirty, you can soak them for an hour before cleaning. In order to ensure that the remaining cleaning agent is completely removed, it may be rinsed again with fresh water.
The last link is also the most important link - drying. Drying is a slow process that takes some time. It is also a detailed job. High temperatures can ruin your down jacket, but drying also requires a certain temperature and dry environment. If you are drying at home, low-temperature drying is the most suitable. If you are drying at a self-service dry cleaner, be very careful about the temperature of their dryer, even if the temperature is low, so be sure to check the temperature before drying clothes.
Because dry cleaning requires certain conditions, the dry cleaning method will not be introduced here.
Precautions:
No matter how you dry your clothes, in the end, make sure it is completely dried before the clothes are put away. Because the downy has a strong hygroscopicity, although it looks like it is dry, it may actually have a lot of moisture. Storage down jackets are also a very important thing. There is no good way to store down jackets. The only way is to keep them dry. If the down jackets are not stored thoroughly, they will be moulded. This is another way to destroy down jackets and jackets.
Emergency clothes
Many donkeys came back from the outdoors and faced a very dirty Jackets often do not know how to wash. So what about washing your clothes and washing ordinary clothes? Xiao Bian clearly tells everyone that the fabric of the Jackets is made of special materials and is not the same as ordinary clothes.
If you just wash directly like ordinary clothes, it will greatly reduce the service life of Jackets. After repeated washing, you will find out how my Jackets are not waterproof?
cleaning method
1. Generally, you can wash your hands thoroughly with clean water at a temperature of about 40 degrees (the water should not be too hot).
2. Choose a neutral detergent solution. If there is no way to distinguish the pH of the detergent solution, use detergent or shampoo instead. Use a sponge or cotton cloth to wipe the surface of the garment directly with a proper amount of detergent until it is blistering. Foaming can speed up the dissolving of the stain, and then gently rub it. If it is really difficult to wash away the dirty place, soak a few minutes and rub it a few times. .
3. Rinse off the foam with clean water, do not use force after cleaning, and finally put the clothes in a ventilated place to dry naturally. When the clothes are completely dry, they can be put in the sun and dried in the sun, sterilized and sterilized to avoid exposure.
Precautions:
1. The most important thing is not to use a washing machine and wash it by hand, otherwise the waterproof layer will separate from the base fabric and become wrinkled under the strong pressure of the washing machine;
2. The best surface scrub with a neutral detergent, water temperature does not exceed 40 degrees;
3. Use a soft brush to brush dirty parts;
4. A lot of water rinsing, be sure to remove the washing ingredients, otherwise the cleaning agent will react with the color of the fabric for a long time;
5. Do not wring the clothes, do not use a dryer, hang directly with a hanger, dry naturally;
6. Can not iron, try to avoid ironing;
7. Each wash will have some damage to the clothing, please avoid frequent washing.
Quick-drying clothes
Quick drying pants also require proper cleaning and maintenance. For quick-drying machines that do not have a waterproof function, it will be washed. For coatings or other fabrics with waterproof function, depending on the strength of use, the degree of water repellency after washing will decrease to varying degrees. Sprays can be used. restore.
cleaning method
In the early quick-drying garments, polypropylene was used for the fabrics. This kind of fabric was easy to pill. The more washing times, the more obvious the phenomenon was and it was easy to age when it was dry or near fire. Polyester is currently used in place of polypropylene, which is characterized by poor pilling and aging. Both types of fabrics should not be rubbed vigorously during washing, and should be opened to a "soft" setting when machine washed.
It is best to avoid direct sunlight when drying. Synthetic fibers tend to age easily when exposed to direct sunlight. In addition, the fiber used in the quick-drying clothes is hardly refractories. A Mars may ruin your hand-picked quick-drying clothes, so everyone must pay attention to smoking or playing bonfires!
Precautions:
1. Machine washing with cold water, plus ordinary washing powder (not recommended with strong detergent), use normal laundry dehydration procedures;
2. Do not dry clean and do not dry with a dry cleaning machine;
3. Do not use hot water or soaking;
4. Do not use bleach and softener;
5. If you want to get the best results, you can reverse the clothes and clean them independently;
6. The quick-drying material is fine because of its fine fiber structure. It is a normal phenomenon that there is a little fluffing;
7. Products with iron or iron seals, set up reversal and independent cleaning;
8. Anti-mosquito and anti-ultraviolet rays series will fade after about 20 times of cleaning.
Fleece pants
Grab the fleece jacket is the second layer (warmth layer) in the jacket, in the outdoor equipment can play a warm effect, is the must for outdoor sports travel in autumn and winter. Grab fleece for warmth and wind protection. However, frequent cleaning of the fleece jacket will reduce warmth. Washing gradually wears fluff on the surface of the fleece (such as the common "pilling" phenomenon).
Over time, the fabric will gradually become thinner, and of course, the thermal performance will gradually diminish. In general, the lining is easy to pill after washing. The thinner the fleece, the more flexible the cleaning, otherwise it will really destroy the fleece surface. The film inside is even more fragile.
cleaning method
1. Fleece can usually be machine-washed, but it is best to set a laundry bag, composite fleece do not dry as much as possible. A laundry bag can be used to avoid rubbing with each other during washing, reducing hair loss and pilling. And as dry as possible, not exposure.
2. It is not recommended to wear woolen clothes outside. One is dirty; the other is easy pilling. Really do not want to wear Jackets, you can use a single layer of nylon fabric cover outside, windproof, but the volume and weight increase is not.
3. Follow the three-layer dress code as much as possible. Two layers of warm fleece jackets are inconvenient and easy to play.
Precautions:
1. Soak with cold detergent for 2-3 minutes (can not soak for too long, otherwise it will destroy the color of the cloth), rinse with water, dry the towel with a large amount of water, and let it dry.
2. After rinsing with clean water, it can also be folded, placed in a laundry bag and dehydrated, and then left to dry.
3. If you use soft and fine, can not be directly on the clothing, should be diluted with water soft and then put the clothes.
4 should not be mixed with the same towel to wash, or shavings will stick to the clothes.
5. Please be sure to follow the washing instructions to clean the laundry, indicating that the dry-cleaning clothes should not be washed without permission and should be sent to the dry cleaners.
outdoor shoes
A pair of outdoor shoes, our main outdoor equipment, spend a lot of money on the purchase, if you use it in a limited number of outdoor conditions, but it can not wear long, is it a pity? Is it improper maintenance or the quality of the shoes themselves? I believe that we have a friend who knows a lot about the outdoors. The outdoor shoes that I wear are not stand up to the outdoors. The quality of the shoes is certainly understandable. How can we use our outdoor shoes as many times as possible? This requires us to have a certain amount of outdoor common sense, and to recognize the cleaning and maintenance of outdoor waterproof shoes!
cleaning method
First brush the dirt on the shoes. Note that in order not to damage the upper material, you must use a soft brush to gently dip the water, pour out the sand stones inside the shoes, remove the insoles to relax the laces, and let the shoes dry naturally in the shade. Do not put it in the sun;
All external materials of the shoe, including the tongue, shoelace, etc., have been water-repelled before leaving the factory, and the shoes will have a waterproof film. If the waterproof shoes are improperly cleaned, the waterproof layer will be damaged, and the waterproof of the waterproof shoes will be damaged. Function, but will gradually lose its function during use, when it is found that the water can no longer turn into drops of water on the upper, when the shoes are dry, the surface of the shoe, including shoelaces, etc., can be dialed for water treatment. Purchase water-repelling materials by yourself;
Before going out, you must check the waterproof performance of the shoes, strengthen or restore the water repellent function on the surface of the shoes, which is beneficial to the waterproof performance of the waterproof shoes.
Always trim the toenails, especially the big toe, to ensure that the waterproof membrane is not worn by the top.
Precautions:
1. Do not store damp or wet shoes. Avoid placing them in damp spaces or in the trunk of your car. Shoes will rot! The use of wooden shoe supports helps maintain the shape of the shoe. If the inside of the shoes is wet, stuffing old newspapers or tissues absorbs moisture. After the shoes are cleaned up, they can also be stuffed into old newspapers to prevent moisture;
2. If the material in the shoe is made of leather material, it needs to be wiped with a moisturizing conditioner or hand lotion. The sweat in the feet and the salt contained in them will erode the leather lining, make it dry, and become brittle and hard.
3. Please do not leave the shoes to dry near a heat source, such as heaters, ovens, car dashboards, or rear luggage racks and trunks. Wet leather can easily “burn†(become brittle and wrinkled. Shrinkage) This often causes irreparable tearing of the fold.
