Exciting Question : Sun May 31, 2009 11:57 am  

Having bought my fax home shirt about 3 months ago now, and worn it very regularly, I have finally decided that it needs to be washed

however, my knowledge of washing is very limited, as i am a student.

i am terrified that if i use the wrong method the shirt may be ruined

any advice on how i can avoid this disaster? ie washing machine temperature etc

thanks

Don't agree. I've always argued that all these different options on a washing machine are completely unnecessary. I only ever use the letter "E" on my Hotpoint washing machine which is 40 degrees (non colourfast cotton). I tend to put dark colours in together, and whites separately. My advice would be to put your fax shirt in at 40 degrees with other stuff you're not scared of ruining (such as towels and bed sheets) which have themselves been washed many times before so they won't run and ruin your fax shirt.

Tony, which Hotpoint model do you operate ?
The aquarius was always one of my favourites.....
