General Polyester Fibre Care Tips
 
1.  Most items made from polyester can be machine washed and dried. Use warm water and add a fabric softener to the final rinse cycle. Machine dry at a low temperature and remove articles as soon as the tumbling cycle is completed.
2.  If ironing is desired, use a moderately warm iron.
     Most items made from polyester can be dry-cleaned. (For specific instructions, refer to garment's sewn-in care label.)
