Ive read something about invisible sugar and salt stains. Whats that all about?
Sugar and salt stains are two types of stains that many drycleaners fail to remove because they dry clear and are often invisible to the naked eye. At Museum Quality Gowncare, our cleaning methods ensure that visible stains such as hem soiling and makeup, sugar-based stains such as champagne and soda, and salt-based stains such as perspiration, are removed. Either completely, or to the maximum extent possible, consistent with the fabric and the nature of the stains. The removal of sugar-based and salt-based stains are particularly important. Sugar-based stains, caused by clear, sugar-based liquids, cannot be removed by the drycleaning process alone. Left untreated, these stains will caramelize over time, resulting in unsightly brown marks. Salt-based stains, caused by contact with the skin, also cannot be removed by the drycleaning process alone. Left untreated, these stains can change the color of the fabric and/or deteriorate the fabric over time.
