Guide to washing & cleaning your down feather pillow form.
Please read carefully to the end before utilizing and please try it on one down feather pillow form, as the cushion inserts are filled by hand and made in various workshops.
If there are any tears or holes in the covering DO NOT PROCEED as the high thread count fabric is made specially to stop the down from " leaking"
It is preferable to use a front loading machine as they have a gentler cycle. And use gentle detergent such as Woolite , never use bleach
Don't overload the washing machine put in half loads
begin the wash cycle before loading the cushion inserts use a pre-soak cycle and add extra rinse cycles.
Add about a-half cup of detergent after the pre soak cycle wait for the machine to fill.
After the pre soak cycle put the pillow inserts or cushion inserts in the washer. As down feather inserts are light and float it is suggested to soak them for two hours in the machine in the pre soak water and then s float tnd place the pillows inside. Down and feathers float so you will have to push the pillows under water and squeeze out as much air as possible. Leave the forms to soak for up to a few hours.
Now start the machine on a gentle wash cycle.
Use a gentle spin dry cycle, get them as dry as possible , the less time they spend in the dryer the better
Put the pillows in the dryer right away and take out as soon as they are dry. Make sure they are dry do not put them back in the case if not absolutely dry
You may be able to save the whole washing drying cycle you only ahe to remove some spots. In that case use a combination of fabric spot remover with baking soda. and a soft brush. absorb with a terry or paper towel
Avoid washing more than 2 or three times a year as it will effect the integrity of the down and goose feathers
any comments or futrher instructions would be appreciated.
