In order for the result to meet expectations, it is necessary to adhere to a certain sequence of actions:

1. The washed jacket is slightly wrung out, allowed to drain off excess water, hung on a coat hanger.
2. After the thing has dried, palpate with hands, while straightening out the formed lumps of filler. Each cell is gently rubbed between the palms, thereby distributing the synthetic winterizer.

How to fluff up and break up clods with a vacuum cleaner?

A simple but very effective way to restore your jacket to its original volume is to use a vacuum cleaner. There are two options for implementing this method.

In the first case, it is necessary to prepare a vacuum bag and a vacuum cleaner with a reverse air supply function.

This procedure must be repeated three or four times.... After that, the down jacket is removed from the bag, shaken well.

The vacuum bag can be replaced with a plastic bag. For those who do not have a vacuum cleaner with a reverse air supply function, an equally effective, but more labor-intensive way of restoring the volume of the down jacket will come to the rescue.

Algorithm of actions:

1. The down jacket is turned inside out.
2. The product is laid out on a table or neatly hung on a hanger.

After steaming, the jacket is shaken and, hanging on a hanger, is sent to storage in a closet.

Hair dryer

Using a hair dryer will help to quickly straighten out a loose padding polyester in a washed jacket. The air flow from the hair dryer should be cool. Otherwise, the risks of damage to the product are great.

Algorithm of actions:

1. The washed jacket is neatly hung on a hanger.
2. Wait a while for the glass of water and the thing to dry out a little.
3. Turn the jacket inside out.
