Washing bibs is generally straightforward; here's a simple guide for cleaning your bibs effectively:
-
Rinse Immediately (If Possible): Rinsing the bib after use, especially after sweaty activities, helps prevent bacteria buildup before machine washing.
-
Use a Wash Bag: Placing bibs, especially those with delicate materials or small parts, in a wash bag protects them during the wash cycle.
-
Choose a Gentle Detergent: Most modern detergents are suitable, but selecting a gentle option ensures the fabric isn't damaged.
-
Machine Wash: Load the bibs into the washing machine with similar colors. Use a cold or warm water cycle to prevent shrinking or fading.
-
Air Dry: Hanging the bibs to air dry is recommended. Avoid using a machine dryer, as high heat can damage the fabric and elastic.
Following these steps should help keep your bibs clean and extend their lifespan.
