The cleaners accidentally used heavy starch on a shirt and even after a couple of washings, the shirt is very stiff? Any ideas how to treat or just keep washing & it will eventually rinse out?

Try fabric softener - the liquid kind that goes in the rinse cycle

i exploit a style pronounced as Niagra. it particularly is a sprig starch. it particularly is the only my mom constantly used, so i exploit it now. i don't understand that there is an option. yet spray starch is heavily in basic terms $a million.20 a bottle, and it lasts with the aid of a minimum of 25 shirts. in case you do verify to apply spray starch, visit a food market / Walmart / noticeably a lot any keep and visit the place the detergents are. it particularly is going to likely be good there... do not spray too a lot earlier each and every thing. Get used to have a starched shirt is. have relaxing!

Soak the shirt for a short while before you wash it and use Downy in the rinse. That should help. Otherwise call the cleaners that did it and ask them what you can do to remedy the problem.

Keep washing it and using fabric softener in the washer. The starch should eventually come out.

Usually all you have to do is wash it with like downy fabric softner and it comes right out after 1 washing. I know this cause my parents own a cleaners.
Good Luck!

I too had an issue with this. The best thing I found was white vinegar. Use it like you would your detergent. It may take a few washings, but soon it will be softer.

The best way is simply to wash it and you'll be starch-free again.

I would call the cleaners or just take it back to them since they didn't do what you wanted. They should be able to fix the problem.
