How to wash cotton padded clothes
1. First put the washing liquid (or washing powder, which is recommended here) into warm water, stir it evenly, and then soak the clothes.
2. The soaking time of cotton padded clothes should be longer, and the effect is the best in about 20 minutes.
3. After soaking, find out the dirtiest parts of the cotton clothes, such as cuffs and necklines. Then wipe a flat washing liquid and rub it gently with your hands. This is the most important step in washing the cotton clothes. After washing these parts, it will be easier to clean other parts of the cotton clothes.
4. After rubbing the dirtiest place off, then rub the whole cotton padded clothes with your hands (it takes three to four times). Of course, at this time, you can also put the cotton padded clothes into the washing machine and turn on the minimum water level for slow washing.
5. After the minimum water level is stirred, turn off the washing machine, and then rinse 2-3 times to clean the cotton clothes.
6. Dry the cotton clothes by hand or by washing machine and dry them in the air. The step of washing cotton padded clothes is over.
Precautions: 1. If it is hand washed, don't wring all the clothes dry after washing, but leave some water to let the clothes dry under the action of gravity, so it won't shrink so easily.
2. Through ironing, stretch the cotton clothes and iron them with an iron to set the shape, so that the clothes can be pulled again, so as to return to the original size and solve the puzzle of shrinkage.
3. Due to the large water content of the cotton clothes that have not been wrung dry, the cotton clothes cannot be directly dried with a clothes hanger after washing, nor can they be hung on a rope or a clothes pole for drying. Otherwise, the cotton clothes of sweaters will be elongated and deformed due to gravity (put the dried sweaters on the towel quilt, flatten and stretch them, and hang them for drying after a little drying).
Can the cotton padded clothes be washed by the washing machine
Generally, washing machine is not recommended for cleaning cotton padded clothes. If more clothes are cleaned, the zipper or pocket of cotton padded clothes or down jacket will be damaged by using washing machine. When washing by machine, it is easy to squeeze and pile up the filling of cotton padded clothes, which will not keep warm. Cotton clothes are usually washed by hand, of course, they can also be dry cleaned. But it's not necessary.

After taking out, apply some soap to the cotton padded clothes, brush the dirt on the clothes with a brush in turn, rinse it with clean water, and then open it to dry. In this way, the washed cotton clothes will not harden and reduce their warmth retention.
2. If the cotton padded clothes are not too dirty, they can be dried in the sun for 2-3 hours, and then a basin of alkaline water or soapy water in the clothes can be washed with a wooden stick. After the water temperature is reached, the cotton padded clothes can be washed repeatedly with a brush dipped in the washing solution, and then a basin of water can be changed, and the washing solution on the cotton padded clothes can be wiped with a clean cloth dipped in water.

How to maintain cotton padded clothes
Cotton padded clothes keep warm but are difficult to clean and maintain. Many friends have a headache for cleaning cotton padded clothes. As for the maintenance methods of cotton padded clothes, I give you the following suggestions:
1、 Cotton clothes cannot be stored in compression bags. Long term compression will make the thermal insulation layer lose elasticity, thus reducing the thermal insulation performance.
2、 Before taking out the collected cotton clothes and wearing them, you can tap them gently with a small stick to restore their fluffy state.
3、 If there is no obvious dirt on the cotton clothes, the new cotton clothes do not need to be cleaned. Wrap them with breathable items (such as finishing bags), put a camphor ball in them to prevent moths, and then store them in a ventilated and dry wardrobe. Be careful not to put heavy pressure on them.
4、 If it is not used for a long time, it is recommended to tidy up the cotton clothes once a time to make it fully stretch and air dry.
5、 There is a lot of rain in summer and autumn. After the rainy season, it's best to take out the cotton clothes and air them to prevent mildew; If mildew spots are found, wipe them with cotton balls dipped in alcohol, then wipe them with a clean wet towel, and then store them properly after drying. But be careful not to expose to the sun, otherwise the new clothes may fade into old clothes.
