Winter not only affects our skin and well-being, but also our clothes. Low temperatures, humidity and the frequent use of more delicate fabrics such as wool or cashmere require special care to prolong their useful life and keep them in perfect condition. Mayordomo, experts in clothing care, offer a series of key recommendations to keep your clothes impeccable during the coldest months of the year.
- Wash with suitable products to protect the fibers. The use of specific detergents is essential to preserve the quality of the fabrics. In winter, it is advisable to wash in cold water or at low temperatures to prevent the fibers from weakening or shrinking. A good detergent is Xcellent Coladas Mixtas, designed to protect the colors and fibers of all types of garments, guaranteeing an effective wash even at low temperatures.
- Say goodbye to winter stains without damaging your clothes. Winter brings with it stubborn stains such as mud, road salt, make-up from scarves or coffee. To remove them without compromising the quality of the fabrics, we recommend a detergent with enzymatic action that acts in depth. For example, Xcellent Stain Remover by Mayordomo penetrates the fibers and removes even the most stubborn stains without damaging the colors or texture of the clothes.
- Dry them properly to avoid damage. Although cold and humidity make drying difficult, it is important to avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or stoves, as they can damage the fibers and deform the garments. Ideally, they should be dried on a clothesline in a well-ventilated area, preferably in a space where air circulates. In the case of wool or cashmere garments, it is advisable to leave them to dry flat on a towel so that they do not lose their shape.
- Store your winter garments in optimal conditions. Storage is key to preventing the deterioration of the most delicate fabrics. Before storing items such as wool jumpers, coats or scarves, it is essential to make sure they are completely clean and dry. Store them in a dry and ventilated place and, if necessary, use breathable cloth bags instead of plastic to prevent the accumulation of moisture and bad odors.
