Cleaning Textile Jacket

[Type_Mo]

Hi all, i got a Alpinestar T-Dyno Jacket, Andf the white bits are faily dirty, It says not to dry clean the jacket. How shall i wash it or clean it then?

I have a small steamer at home, could i use this? Or will the jacket become less waterproof?

Thanks

I remove all the armour from my hein gericke suit and bung in the wash at 30 with some mild liquid soap.

I just took the armour out and put mine in the washer on the lowest heat setting.with some nikwax. It came out fine, no shinkage and seems to have kept it's waterproofing.

febreeze , tis all , not washing off the road rash reminds you not to ride like a maniac.

look at the care label inside the garment.

it should go in the washer. if not, hand wash it in luke warm water in the bath with mild hand wash liquid for wools and delicates.

you can rub vanish on bright collours to get them clean.

then air off to dry on a coat hanger on the line when dry.

apply re proofing such as nik wax or spraying / applying more to seams......

I have just washed one of ours, took all the armour out, washed it on a 40 wash then washed it again with some stuff called "TX.DIRECT" by Nikwax, its a wash in waterproofer. Got it from Millets.
