Washer Repair El Paso Texas
Aaah the holiday party season! For many
fashionistas and families with children, it’s prime time for wearing glittery
clothes and sparkling footwear. But what happens when the clothes and shoes
come off at the end of the festivities? In most instances, it unfortunately
looks like a glitter bomb detonated inside of the laundry room. So to help
prevent those scenarios from playing out again this year, our washer
repair pros wanted to provide a few tips for dealing with
shimmering party apparel:
Do buy several wash bags that feature very fine mesh and launder
the clothes using cold water. By placing your sparkly clothes in the bags first
and then pitching them into the machine, you’ll likely keep any glitter that
comes off during the wash contained to one area. And if any glitter does manage
to escape the confines of the wash bag, it shouldn’t be too much trouble to
clean the mess up.
Don’t put glitter clad footwear, like TOMS®, into the washing
machine. It’s bad for your footwear and your washing machine. Instead, invest
in a small wash basin and gently clean them by hand with an eco-friendly,
bleach free detergent. Then let them sit out onto your laundry room table
overnight to air dry alongside of your family’s holiday sweaters.
Do remember that not all glitter glue and holiday glitter sprays
are created equal. Some won’t stain fabrics and are safe to use in both the
washer and dryer. Others are not. So if you plan on letting the kids get crafty,
remember to choose washable glitter products. And when it comes time to machine
wash their shimmering creations, reach for alkaline detergents. Our washer
repair pros have found that citrus and oxygen bleach based detergents have a
tendency to destroy homemade glitter apparel in a New Mexico minute.
Don’t forget to thoroughly clean the washer’s drum
when you are through. Otherwise, the glitter residue may transfer from the
drum’s surface to future loads of wash. To remove the glitter from the drum, try
using a handheld lint remover or an inside out piece of masking tape. Vacuum
cleaners with soft attachment brushes may also help get rid of any glitter that
may have fallen into hard to reach areas. To learn more about keeping laundry
room appliances clean and running efficiently over the holidays, please contact
