tips
-
When you steam iron woollen fabrics, shiny patches may occur. To prevent this, use a dry
pressing cloth or turn the article inside out and iron the reverse side.
-
Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric to prevent shiny patches.
-
Iron velvet and other fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches in one direction only (along with
the nap) while you apply very little pressure.
-
Do not use steam when you iron coloured silk. This could cause stains.
