Let's start washing

Now that we have decided on the main factors, let's talk about the process itself. In fact, correctly erasing thermal underwear - the task is very simple. But many people have another question, but how often do you need to do this washing yourself?

How often do I wash?

Understanding the principle of the work of "breathing" tissue, some questions will disappear by themselves. Proceeding from the fact that thermotape works like our skin, which means it has pores, it is logical to assume that the more often the product will be worn, the more "pores" will be clogged and do not miss the substances they put. So - in time lose its properties. Specialists recommend washing sports thermal underwear immediately after the gym, and everyday - at least 3 times a week.

Important! Determine whether you need to erase things, smell in this case you will not get, because the fabric structure is not intended to store smells in yourself.

The answer to the question whether it is possible to wash underwear of this kind, we got. But let's look at it - do it manually or in a car? Let's see both options.

Washing in the machine

Washing the thermal underwear in the washing machine has always caused fears from ordinary lay people. Also, sellers were frightened by the fact that it was not allowed to do this. But the truth is not on their side.

It turns out that things of this type can be erased at certain settings in the device settings, and sometimes it is necessary. In order to successfully wash clothes in the car, it is enough to follow simple rules:

1. Use the delicate mode of your washing machine. If the choice is not limited to the delicate mode, then select the mode for wool or silk.
2. Set the maximum water temperature not exceeding 40 degrees, for polypropylene thermal underwear, this figure is best lowered to 30.
3. It is best to turn off the spinning altogether if possible, or set it at minimum speed. The spin regime negatively affects the integrity of the material, reduces its thermoregulatory functions. It is not recommended to unscrew the thermal underwear, it is necessary to let the water escape and dry itself.

As you can see, you can erase thermal underwear in a washing machine, you just need to follow simple recommendations and monitor the quality of their implementation.

Hand wash

If you still do not trust the washing machine and decide on hand washing, then there are also a number of rules:

1. When choosing the means for washing thermal underwear, in this case it is better to give preference to the usual household soap. Prepare a warm solution of soap and leave for half an hour the laundry soaked in it.
2. Do not crush or rub the product during the procedure. Easy enough movements, as when rinsing.
3. Water should not be too hot when you wash the thermal underwear manually. The optimum temperature is in the same range as with machine wash - 30-40 degrees.
4. Do not press things. Hang them on ropes and let the water drain from them yourself.
5. Do not hang the product near heaters or batteries for drying.

Important! It is strictly forbidden to dry such things over the stove, as well as any others. This will not only harm the laundry, but also fire.

1. Before you wash anything for the first time, be sure to pay attention to the tag.
2. Thermal linen with a fleece is necessary to erase, turning out on the wrong side.

As you can see, both types of washing do not differ much from each other. Both in manual and in machine wash, warm water is used, sparing washing and no pressing.
