🧽 Gentle Spot Cleaning
Use a damp cloth or mild soap solution to wipe away small stains. Avoid harsh scrubbing to protect the fabric’s fibers and embroidery.
☀️ Keep Out of Direct Sunlight
Extended sun exposure can cause fabrics to fade or weaken. Store robes and vestments in a cool, shaded wardrobe.
🧴 Use Fabric Fresheners Carefully
A light fabric freshener or steam can help maintain freshness. Avoid heavy sprays or chemicals that may leave stains.
🔥 Avoid Heat Damage
Do not place near heaters or open flames. High heat can shrink or damage delicate materials.
🧪 Skip Harsh Chemicals
Avoid bleach, alcohol-based sprays, or strong detergents. These can discolor or weaken fabrics.
💨 Air Dry Only
If garments get wet, hang them on a padded hanger in a ventilated room. Never tumble dry.
🪝 Store Properly
Hang robes and surplices on wide, padded hangers to maintain their shape. Use breathable garment bags for long-term storage.
🪓 Prevent Snags & Tears
Keep away from sharp jewelry, rough surfaces, or velcro that may pull threads.
🧪 Test Before Washing
When using any cleaner, test on a small hidden area first to ensure it won’t damage the fabric.
🧵 Maintain Stitching & Trim
Check regularly for loose threads, buttons, or decorative trim. Prompt repairs will extend the life of your vestments.
