How to Wash a Backpack?
Often duffel bag manufacturers do not recommend washing it because it is impregnated with a special impregnation for water resistance. They recommend using a wet cloth to keep it clean.
Can you wash a backpack if it’s really dirty and scrubbing it with a brush gets you nowhere?
Remember the 4 rules:
- Remove the hard frame beforehand;
- Turn the backpack inside out with straps inside out and secure. Plastic parts won’t scratch the drum of your washing machine;
- Set the machine to the cold water delicate wash program (maximum 30 minutes)°C) without a spin and with a small amount of bleach-free powder. Cold water will not wash out the impregnation or discolor the duffel bag;
- Do not wring out the backpack after washing. Hang it on a rope to let the water drain out.
If you still hesitate to wash your backpack in the washing machine, do it by hand.
- grate laundry soap or tar soap. This soap is made from vegetable oils and animal fats. It won’t ruin the fabric;
- Pour room temperature water into a deep basin or bathtub (30-40°C)°C);
- Soak in a soapy solution for 20-30 minutes;
- Brush heavily soiled areas with a clothes brush;
- Rinse in running water;
- without wringing out, dry on a rope.
Don’t wash your shoulder bag too often, because over time the impregnation will wash out anyway.
