Has anyone used these on 100% Polyester Suede successfully? I was hoping not to have to dry clean the shirt every time. Thanks

I tried in a polyester suede jacket and it worked fine for the first time, but second time the collar and scuff were lightly soiled and although I followed all the instructions it couldn't remove all the dirt, since polyester and soil have affinity it needs a stronger agent like water or perc. I recommend hand wash and hang to dry or dry cleaning with hydrocarbon, a modern solvent more delicate and eco friendly. FYI I am a laundry owner.

Perhaps an email to Woolite might answer your question. I would be reluctant to try it otherwise.

I just wash them on the normal cycle with my dark cloths. I also put them in the dryer. I don't use fabric softener so I can't help ya there.

I have gotten it on my clothing but it came right out with regular washing. Wasn't a problem for me but I don't wear many dry-clean only fabrics so can't speak to those.

They say hand wash only, and I'm guessing that's best. They're 100% polyester and have pretty cheap (though cute!) details on them that probably wouldn't survive in the washing machine. Definitely no dryer -- they'd melt!

Well, I never cleaned silk shirts using dryel, but I just read the directions re that. Said that "silks and rayons are discouraged due to possible water markings." Any other material is fine. You have to throw away the sheet you put in the bag to dry clean the clothes, but the bag can be used many times. You can clean as many as 3-5 items in the bag. Hang up afterwards to air. I like it.

I use delicate cycle, warm water. No, I don't use fabric softener, just regular detergent. They seem pretty tough and could probably be washed in a regular cycle. I never put them in with regular clothing due to the Bona chemical that is used. Might not do anything, but I don't take the chance. I wash them sometimes with the rags used to dry out the bathtub or things I use to clean up spots on the carpet.

Sorry, I have not used it on SW suede boots, but I have used it on a pair of suede ankle boots. Worked great to waterproof and didn't mess up the suede. Hope this is helpful.

Sorry, can't help you. Have never tried it, and I wouldn't because it says it's ok to machine wash but to line dry....I've usually punctured a pair long before I have needed to clean them

I agree with Capt. Kevin. I have never had it "ruin" anything so if it were my Coach bag, I would not hesitate to try it, but just to be safe... do as the good Capt. suggests and try an inconspicuous area first. Is the bag a suede type of leather -- open pored? If so, I would *not* try it as any liquid will only absorb further into that type of leather. Get a cleaner specifically for suede leather. But if it is a smooth leather, I would definitely use Meguiars.

I have some similar cloths I bought elsewhere and I got ripped off but they also said don't dry with fabric softener. So I'll remember, I wash them in my regular wash, with the usual underwear, sox, etc. But I put them in a lingerie bag so I notice them when I'm putting things in the dryer. When I see them, I immediately put them aside and hang them on a rack to dry. And I think these are like mine so they take little time to dry. Hope this might help!

Sorry, velvet is very touchy, there are kits that allow you to dry clean...myself I have a drycleaner to do it. My quilts have buttons ribbon and such on them I won't mach wash them either. There are shorter cropped vest suedes that are polyester and can be washed. Hope this helps you.

I did have the problem of Leather Dye wiping off and rubbing off onto my clothes from a handbag I dyed. I used Resolene as a top coat and it seems to have fixed the problem. Now I only use acrylic dyes for shoes and handbags.

We use them a lot with stray cats and wildlife--I use unscented laundry detergent, and throw them in my washer on a regular cycle- sometimes, a gentle cycle depending on how many I am washing-I use a warm/warm or a hot/cold water setting-then I dry in the dryer, no scented sheets or fabric softeners and I set the dryer on a gentle or no wrinkle--they dry really really fast so keep an eye on them, if not I air dry and it does not take long--they come out a bit softer but clean and just as insulating and warming as before. Hope this helps you Patricia

The problem with using Amodex on leather or suede, is that may leave a grease like residue. Rubbing alcohol, applied with a clean rough, plain white washcloth has always done the trick for our microfiber, suede and leather ink stains.

Yes, that's the only reason I purchased the product was to use on my Bal bags. Don't use it on suede though! Completely changed the color of suede boots I have. Has never altered the color on my Bal bags though. Don't go over board spraying! One light coat is all you need.

I painted a pair of boots i have. Theyre not real leather but that fake shiny pleather and it worked great. It stuck really well. It covered nicely. I painted a black boot red and none of the black came through. It dried quickly. I did it overnight. I only used maybe two coats.

Yes. I buy it to use on all my suede boots. That's why I buy it. I have used it on many pairs. It might look a little wet, but will dry normal. Do not spay too close to the boots.
