Dry Cleaning [Revisited]

[beerbecue]

This may be an awful, way off the mark, suggestion..... but what about a carpet steam cleaner?? Not one of those commercial rental ones, but like the home version Hoover type ones??

If you used the hand attachment, and just worked the really dirty spots??????

You can use cold water, very little detergent, it sucks it fairly dry, and you could lay it out for further drying (or hang it, I guess).....

Please, no rocks.......

I've never seen one of these. HuH, it sounds like an interesting idea.

No rocks, here.

Hey Barb, thanks for the pressing hints...

My local dry cleaners do a great job--but if I book the garment in as a kilt it costs three times as much as if booked as a 'skirt'!

Well what would you do?

Hi James is the price difference somthing to do with sewing the pleats before cleaning ?

I'm comming to England / Scotland next month would a Sketctleys do a good job?

When I visited Kathy Lare at Kathy's Kilts in Albuquerque last weekend she was sending a kilt out to be drycleaned and had basted all the pleats together BEFORE she sent it to the cleaners. Think she had four rows of basting stitches in....
