NOTE:
If you follow good laundry procedures and permanent press
clothes still come out
wrinMed,
the
finish
may not be good quality. Also, in
permanent press synthetic/cotton blends,
the
cotton portion of the fabric can
eventually wear away leaving only the synthetic. Since its the cotton
pofiion
which is treated for
~rmanent
press, a loss or decrease of
perrnment
press
~erformance
will result.
