MONEY SAVING COUPON Fabric Care Tip #10 - Winter 2007
Snow and Salt — Savior and Stainer
When the snow starts to fall, we've got to thank heaven for salt. It keeps the sidewalks and driveways from icing up, and us from slipping and sliding.
Unfortunately, snow + salt = slush and that can wreak havoc on your clothes!
When salt saturated snow and water (aka slush) splashes on your clothes, the salt can pull color, leave rings, and permanantly stain your winter garb and footwear. That’s why it is so important to clean or launder your snow-splattered clothes promptly! Protect your winter wardrobe and preserve it for use again next season by cleaning during the sloppy cold weather.
