How to wash Gildan T-shirts


Posted October 19, 2013 by adrianlee00

Generally, T-shirts, including Fruit of the Loom T-shirts and Gildan T-shirts, are made from cotton and polyester. While these fabrics are breathable and have a nice texture, they present the risk of shrinking

 
Manual washing is a long gone process. Still, in some cases, it is better to wash your fragile clothing like this than to ruin it inside the washing machine, trying to make it clean. But manual washing is mostly recommended to silk clothing; if your garments are made from cotton, the best way to clean them is to use the automatic washing machine.

Unfortunately, not everybody knows how to use such machine, especially if they have to use a public one, that may seem more complicated than a domestic washer. But the truth is that both of these appliances are easy to use, if you only pay attention to their buttons and commands. In fact, using a public washing machine could be even better, because there, you get the chance of reading a lot of tips regarding washing dirty T-shirts.

As an example, you could read that stains should be firstly treated under running cold water, and only after that, the garments should be placed inside the washing machine. Another tip that you could find out while washing your garments is that you need to dilute vinegar to remove deep stains and chlorine to remove stains from white garments, never from coloured ones.

But dirty T-shirts may not always present stains that need to be treated before placing them inside the washing machine. Some of them need washing simply because you have spent an entire night in a coffee shop, allowing your T-shirt to get bathed in cigarette smoke. In this case, when the T-shirt does not present any stains whatsoever, first you need to let the T-shirt for several hours in the wind, and then wash it.

To make sure you will wash your cotton shirt properly, choose a medium washing setting. And do not wash your shirts in cold water. Warm water helps eliminate better stains and dirt from the texture of your shirts, that is why it is recommended to wash your Fruit of the Loom T-shirts and Gildan T-shirts in warm water. The washing machine setting that you choose should refer to spinning as well.

Spinning is a feature that any washing machine offers. It is up to the user if he wants to spin his clothes or not after being washed. Spinning helps the garments lose some of the water that entered their texture. As an example, washing machine settings that are created especially for silk clothing do not include spinning, because this wrinkles and sometimes destroys for good silk fabrics.

When it comes to cotton, and Fruit of the Loom T-shirts and Gildan T-shirts are made from cotton, spinning is recommended. However, if the user is not such a fan of ironing clothing, he should limit the process of spinning his clothes to several seconds, or eliminate the process. In this case, the user would have to wait more for his clothing to get dry. To speed up the drying process, T-shirts can be hung in front of a fan.
