cold water, delicate cycle. Do not use dryer - hang to dry. Unless it's ridiculously cheap, the colors won't run.
In cold water on gentle at least the first time. Still on cold after that.
Before you wash it soak it in a 50/50 solution of vinager and water. Soak it for 20 minutes and then let it semi dry. Then you can wash it regular how the tag says so. This sets the colors so they won't bleed.
color absorbing sheets in with the wash
If you wash it by hand, cold water and add some salt 1/4 cup and rinse well..it will prevent it from dripping color
I'd follow the manufacturers instructions on the label. But when in doubt, hand wash or dry clean.
Wash it in cold water & if you dry it in the dryer, use a very low setting. Tide makes a "Cold Water" detergent now & it works great.
cold water in gentle cycle use All color safe detergent.
Use Biz!!
