Have you ever sent it to a dry cleaners?

Are you using warm water to wash?

Those two things will Keep it yellow, no matter what.

no never dry clean. I know it makes it yellow.

I use lukewarm water. maybe I dont realise and its warm.

should I use cold? didnt know if will clean well if cold.

I just checked the instructions on the box and it says lukewarm water.

the water eventually gets cold so why stary with lukewarm. it wont stay that temp anyway?
