Drycleaning vs. Wetcleaning: what is the difference?
A. Drycleaning means your garments are immersed or machine “washed” in a solvent mixture designed to prevent harm to natural fibers such as silk and wool. After the cleaning, the solvent is extracted taking the soil with it. Clothes are then dried and pressed. Wet cleaning may be a solvent-and-water process, or water-and-commercial detergent. Again, the clothes are dried and then pressed. Fancy detail work is always hand-pressed at Arrow.
