Report on Washing Sam's Sailor Suit

[MissMooMoo]

I washed a very old Samantha Sailor Suit, per everyone's suggestions.

First, I removed any obvious stains with a Shout! brand portable wipe.

Second, I soaked the dress, the hat, a pair of white tights, and Sam's old, old meet bloomies in cold water and Shaklee Basic H for about two hours. I carefully swirled them around and pressed the suds through, then rinsed.

Hung them to dry in the shower, with the dress on an AG hanger.

I must say they have brightened considerably and look much better. No more dull gray tinge or random dust spots, etc. Also, no wrinkles or anything.

I buy Basic H from a friend of my moms. I am very sensitive so usually I use it to clean with, but I also wash my delicates in it.
