Nowadays, jackets are worn not only on special occasions such as business meetings or formal events, but also in everyday life.
It is for this reason that it is worth learning how to properly care for a jacket at home.
Let us note right away that machine washing of suit fabric items is prohibited.
Instead, use any of the methods below to get your jacket looking its best.
With soap
Prepare a soap solution and wash the suit with a sponge. Then wipe the treated areas several times with a clean, dry cloth.
Method with vinegar
Dilute vinegar with water in a 50/50 ratio, warm it up a little and wipe the dirt with a sponge or swab. You can use warm water instead of vinegar. After cleaning, iron the suit through gauze. This method will not only remove dirt and shine from the clothes, but also restore their brightness.
Extreme method – with potatoes
Some particularly inventive housewives manage to clean a jacket using fresh potatoes. To do this, cut a washed potato in half and wipe the problem areas of the suit with it.
The remaining starch is removed with a sponge and water.
