Optimum care for your clothes
Dry cleaning is a delicate cleaning technique that uses chemical solvents to remove stains and dirt from clothes without damaging them. This method is particularly recommended for fragile fabrics such as silk, wool and cashmere.
1. Read care labels carefully
The first step is to read the care labels on your clothes carefully. They indicate specific cleaning instructions, including whether or not dry-cleaning is possible.
2. Choose a dry cleaner you can trust
It's important to choose a dry cleaner you can trust, such as Teinturerie de la Senne, which uses quality solvents and appropriate cleaning techniques. Don't hesitate to ask your friends and family for recommendations.
3. Prepare your clothes for cleaning
Before taking your clothes to the dry cleaners, empty the pockets and remove all accessories. If possible, fasten buttons and zips.
4. Remove stubborn stains
If your clothes have stubborn stains, it's important to point them out to the dry cleaners before cleaning. This will allow the professionals to adapt their treatment and achieve a better result.
5. Ask for a quote
Don't hesitate to ask for a quote before sending your clothes to the dry cleaners. This will allow you to compare prices and choose the option best suited to your needs.
6. Inspect your clothes after cleaning
When you collect your clothes, inspect them carefully to make sure they are clean and undamaged.
