How to Steam Clean a Suit
Learning how to steam clean a suit is essential to getting rid of nasty wrinkles while still maintaining the longevity of the suit. Steam cleaning a suit will eliminate all wrinkles and take some unpleasant odors out of it as well.
What you will need:
1. Your suit.
2. A good open place to hang or lay your suit. This can be achieved through clever hanging, a garment rack, or a nice clean table.
3. A steam cleaner. These can be purchased online for less than a hundred dollars and can save you much more than that over the lifetime of your suit.
Instructions:
1. Lay your suit out flat on a table or hang it up in an open space.
2. Fill up your steam cleaners tank and plug the cleaner in.
3. While waiting for the tank to heat up, brush the suit off making it devoid of any lint or hair.
4. Use the nozzle of your cleaner to shoot steam at your suit from several inches away.
Be careful not to let the suit get too moist.
5. Use one hand to hold the suit still while using the other hand to do long even strokes with the nozzle.
Repeat this process until the wrinkles have completely fallen away from your suit.
