Guide to washing your trucker caps
If caps are your favorite accessory because you wear them practically every day, and you want them to continue to last, then it is undoubtedly important that you give them the cleaning they deserve!
The first thing you should know is that it is completely normal for your cap to stain or even turn a little yellow. All this is due to the constant use that you can give it, between sweat, visits to the beach, the park, stains from drinks or even food accidentally.
But don't worry! All this has a solution and we give it to you.
It is best to wash your cap manually, always following the manufacturer's recommendations through the label attached to the cap. You may also be able to wash it in the washing machine, but that's why it's important to always look at the manufacturer's label first, before deciding on that option.
This is the best choice if you don't have much time for cleaning. Otherwise, you can opt for hand washing. Normally it is also preferred to avoid some type of deformity in the cap, however, as we mentioned, some caps, such as sports caps, come ready to be washed in the washing machine.
In this guide, we tell you the steps you must follow to wash a cap very carefully so that it does not become deformed.
To start you will need:
- Water container
- Mild detergent or liquid soap
- Toothbrush or other soft brush
- Warm water, not hot
Once you have everything you need, we follow these 6 points:
- Put warm water in a container and add mild detergent or liquid soap. Add enough water to cover the cap.
