Turn polyester-knit garments inside out before washing to prevent snags. Machine-wash polyester in warm water, using an all-purpose detergent. Use a chlorine bleach if necessary and using a fabric softener will reduce static electricity. Tumble-dry at a low temperature setting. Do not overly dry polyester; this will cause gradual shrinkage.Press polyester fabrics at a moderate temperature setting, steam if needed, and get ready to wear as soon as it's ready!
