Garments
can discolour due to substances such as mud and grass,
liniment or oil and of course perspiration all of which
may not be fully removable by washing. Careful adherence
to the garment instructions will minimise likelihood of
staining. The extent of discolouration can be greatly
reduced by following a few simple procedures.
Soaking
and/pre washing of the garment in water and detergent
as soon as possible after use can reduce discolouration,
using at least the same volume of water as the garment
being treated. Always follow detergent manufacturer’s
instructions especially those intended to tackle heavy
stains and avoid products containing bleach.
The
use of pre-wash soakers will assist in the removal of
stains, particularly with white kits. Wash dark colours
separately in low temperatures, rinse thoroughly and hang
to dry. Do not iron custom printing. Avoid leaving kit
folded or bundled together whilst damp or soiled after
use. Summit Sports cannot accept any liability for discolouration
or damage to garments resulting from staining caused by
elements foreign to the materials used in manufacture.
