    Hank,

    Personally, I've never had any trouble with our local dry cleaners, so I haven't really researched the topic too much. My personal kilts I never dry clean, because they have never gotten that dirty (beyond what I can clean myself at home with some spot-cleaning as others have described here).

    The kilts we rent at the STM we do have dry cleaned, and for years we have just taken them to our local cleaners in Franklin. Carolina Cleaners, they are called, and are owned and operated by a Chinese family (I know it sounds like a stereotype, but hey, it's true this time!). They have never messed up a kilt for us, and charge something along the lines of $7. (It's been a while since I looked at one of the bills).

    I know there have to be some other kilt wearers in/near Charleston who could tell you of their experience with different cleaners so you can get a recommendation for someone more local.

    Aye,
    Matt

    Likewise, on those few occasions I've needed a dry cleaner, our local does an OK job.
