Here are few Important things to know about Spandex Fabric!
1-You can shrink spandex by washing it in hot water!
For spandex to shrink, it is essential to wash and dry on a high heat setting. Spandex blended with cotton can shrink more as compared to 100% Spandex when washed on a higher temperature setting.
2-Can spandex go in the dryer?
Air-dry your spandex garment away from direct heat and sun. Never dry your spandex garment in a tumble dryer!
After a lot of wear and time, spandex will eventually lose its elasticity. But if you take care to wash and dry your spandex clothing correctly, it will help keep its shape—and even help you keep yours!
Spandex stretches with wear, but can be stretched again after being washed if necessary; avoid putting it through the wringer of the washer/dryer as this may cause irreparable damage or tearing.
Machine washing is appropriate for activewear and durable spandex blends. Turn the item inside out, and place it in a Mesh Washing Bag to preserve elasticity and prevent tearing and snagging in the machine. Select the delicate cycle and use cool water.
