I just bought a black coat and it keeps collecting white fuzz.?

Question

anybody know how i make it stop collecting junk. i havent washed it yet cos it says to dry clean only. will it make a difference if i wash it?

Answer 1

I wouldn't wash it, if it says dry-clean only. That might ruin it. You could try spraying it with Static Guard. It won't hurt it, but it might make it less likely to attract fuzz. You should also get one of those lint rollers that have layers of tape that you pull off when they get covered with lint. They work really well.

Answer 3

Do not wash it. Use a lint roller to remove the white fuzz. Then lightly pass a dryer sheet over the coat.

Answer 4

same problem you will just need to get a stick roller and clean it almost everyday


ps don't wash it and if the roller doesn't work pick the fuzz off by hand because dry cleaning is tooo expensive

Answer 5

if you wash that coat it will shrink. use a spray that will stop the static, it is the static that helps gather link. I love my black coat, I have always had black long coats, so I have one of the roller brushes with tape in my car and at home. they are real cheap.2/99 and they help so much

Answer 6

i love black clothing....but that's what happens with black fabric...you might try spraying it with cling-free static guard. carry some dryer sheets with you, or a lint roller thingy to touch it up...i know, a pain in the rump roast, but it works. you prob shouldn't wash it, but you can use dryel in the dryer....it's a home dry cleaning kit. good luck with this.

Answer 7

That happens with most black things.I would keep a lint roller on hand and keep it in your pocket for quick fixes.

Answer 8

Get a lint roller

Answer 9

take it back to the shop and ask for a coat that doesnt collect anything
i had a friend who collected frog spawn once

Answer 10

Its probably always going to do that, try scotch guard or carry a small lint roller with you.
