Tips On Washing & Cleaning Mens Dress Shirts - Wash Cold - Spot Clean - Hang Dry - Iron Moist

About this video

Centeno teaches proper dress shirt care techniques to extend garment lifespan, covering when to wash shirts, pre-treatment of stains, appropriate detergents and additives, and drying methods. He emphasizes washing only when truly dirty, using cold water and minimal detergent, spot-treating stains before washing, and hang-drying rather than using a dryer.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno recommends inspecting the neck and cuffs for dirt and grime to determine if a dress shirt needs washing, and suggests minimizing washes to extend the shirt’s usable life
  • Centeno advises washing in cold water with moderate amounts of detergent, avoiding bleach and heat, and spot-cleaning stains with detergent and a toothbrush before the wash cycle
  • Centeno recommends using quality detergent like Tide, OxiClean for general stain removal, and Deo-Go specifically for armpit stains, while always hang-drying instead of using a dryer
