Be Kind.

I present to you the seven things that will save your uniform.

In the last three years I’ve come in contact with a lot of fluids that I had to learn (the hard way) how to clean out of my uniforms.

Hydrogen peroxide will pull blood from almost any fabric. The sooner you pour it on the stain, the better.

Dawn dish soap will help to break down grease in your uniforms. Apply to the area, lightly scrub/work it into the fabric and wash in COLD water.

Oxy-Clean laundry spray will work on blood (I usually use it along with peroxide on blood), pen (not permanent), and mud. In my experience, it’s been safe on all materials.

Lysol laundry sanitizer goes in every other wash on my uniforms. Won’t fade colors. Won’t peel vinyl lettering on clothing and leaves a fresh clean scent.

As far as detergent and fabric softener, use something that agrees with your skin. The two pictured are relatively inexpensive. I dilute my fabric softener to preserve the vinyl lettering on my shirts.

When someone shows you their soul, show yours in return.

Because this is how lovers meet;

An act of courage
