Before you get started:
- Always check the label of the garment beforehand for the instructions to preserve the quality.
- Iron when the clothing is still slightly damp, or dampen the garment with a spray bottle.
- For the smoothest result, use an ironing board set at a comfortable height.
- Prevent the iron from coming into contact with zips, buttons or prints and imprints; this can cause damage!
