How To Wash Cormo Fleece
Cormo fleece contains about 15% lanolin. In order to correctly wash a
Cormo fleece it is necessary to use 140 degree water throughout the
process. Never let the fleece sit in water that has cooled off
or the dirt and lanolin will set into the fleece. We recommend
that fleece be examined and washed as soon as you get it. We fill a top loading washing machine with very hot water and 2
cups of Arm & Hammer clothes washing detergent. Agitate to distribute the detergent then submerge the fleece and let soak for 40 minutes. Spin out the dirty water and remove the fleece. Clean out the machine and refill with very hot water and 1 cup detergent and
1 cup of ammonia. Return the fleece to the machine and soak for 30 minutes. Spin out water. Remove fleece. Fill machine with very hot water and return fleece to machine. Soak for 10 minutes. Spin out water and remove fleece. Dry fleece on a screen or a sun porch.
Ammonia will not harm your fleece.
