How Would I Wash My Hunting Jacket?

Well hunting season is over and my hunting jacket is full of mud? How would I wash it? There is numberous zippers which i dont want to break. Dont want it to shrink or rip.





So how would i wash it.How Would I Wash My Hunting Jacket?
the zippers are the least of your problems. they should not break no matter how you wash or clean the jacket.





preferably if it has a makers tag, google the maker and get care instructions.





Rub the fabric together dry to get the mud off. It will powder so do it over the trash can.





It does not matter if it is down filled. It can be washed mild detergent, warm water warm rinse, gentle cycle. Tumble dry with either a couple of tennis balls or a pair of clean tennis shoes.





If it is wool! another problem. DO NOT agitate while wet!!! this will shrink it big time!!!





Since you don't know what it is made of, send it to the dry cleaners!! Safest method to prevent shrinking and felting.How Would I Wash My Hunting Jacket?
what kind of fabric is it?depending as you can do a delicate or a cotton wash?
first wash it as if a normal piece of clothing. then make it go through with scent away or dead down wind products.
And, be careful of smells that may remain. Prey animals have an extremely good sense of smell.
Close all zippers and other fasteners like snaps, buttons or velcro. Wash according to the directions on the care tag.





Bert
Zip up all the zippers - rinse all of the loose mud/dirt off it - let it dry - then take it to a local dry cleaners - if it is down filled - don't put it in your washing machine - if it isn't down wash it on gentle cycle in cold water with woolite detergent. wash it by itself - let it drip dry - don't put it in the dryer with any heat.





Good Luck.
