Product Care

Maintaining Your Workwear

General Care Tips:

  • Regular Washing: Wash your workwear regularly to remove dirt, oils, and chemicals that can degrade the fabric over time. Follow the washing instructions on the care label to avoid damaging the material.
  • Separate by Color: To prevent color bleeding, wash dark and light-colored workwear separately.
  • Use Mild Detergents: Harsh detergents and bleach can weaken fabric fibers and reduce the protective qualities of your workwear. Choose mild, fabric-friendly detergents for the best results.
  • Avoid Fabric Softeners: Fabric softeners can leave a residue that reduces the breathability and moisture-wicking properties of your workwear, especially on synthetic fabrics.

Specific Material Care:

  • Cotton Workwear: Wash in cold or warm water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibers. Avoid high heat when drying to prevent shrinkage.
  • Polyester and Blends: These materials are durable but can be sensitive to high heat. Wash on a cold or warm cycle and tumble dry on low. Iron on a low setting if necessary.
  • Waterproof or Insulated Workwear: Follow the care instructions carefully to maintain the waterproofing and insulation properties. Often, these garments should be washed in cold water and air-dried. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the waterproof membrane.

Stain Removal:

  • Act Quickly: The sooner you treat a stain, the easier it will be to remove. Blot (do not rub) liquid stains with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much as possible before washing.
  • Pre-Treat Stains: Use a stain remover or a mixture of mild detergent and water to pre-treat stubborn stains. Apply directly to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wash as usual.

Storage Tips

  • Clean Before Storing: Always clean your gloves and workwear before storing them to prevent mold, mildew, or odor buildup.
  • Cool, Dry Place: Store your gloves and workwear in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which can degrade the materials.
  • Avoid Folding or Crushing: When storing gloves, avoid folding or crushing them, as this can cause creases or deformities. Hang or lay them flat to maintain their shape.
  • Use Cedar or Lavender: To prevent moths and insects from damaging your workwear, consider using cedar blocks or lavender sachets in your storage area.

Regular Inspections

  • Check for Wear and Tear: Regularly inspect your gloves and workwear for signs of wear and tear, such as thinning fabric, holes, or weakened seams. Early detection allows for timely repairs, extending the life of your gear.
  • Replace When Necessary: Even with proper care, work gloves and workwear will eventually wear out. Replace them when they no longer provide adequate protection, such as when gloves lose their grip or workwear shows significant wear.

Repairs

  • Simple Repairs: For minor issues like loose threads or small holes, consider repairing your workwear yourself or taking it to a professional. This can extend the life of your gear and save you money in the long run.
  • Avoid DIY Fixes on Safety Gear: For gloves or workwear that are critical to your safety, such as cut-resistant gloves or flame-retardant clothing, avoid DIY repairs. Instead, replace the item to ensure your protection is not compromised.

Conclusion

Proper care and maintenance of your work gloves and workwear are essential to ensure they continue to perform effectively, keeping you safe and comfortable on the job. By following these care guidelines, you can extend the life of your Friction Pro products, getting the most out of your investment. Whether it’s cleaning, storing, or inspecting your gear, taking the time to care for your equipment will pay off in durability and reliability.
