WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
Wash TripleFlex by hand in lukewarm soapy water using Ivory Liquid Hand Soap® (or similar mild hand soap). Add just enough soap to produce a soapy bath. Suggested concentration: 1 teaspoon per 1 gallon of water.
Rinse thoroughly by hand using cool or lukewarm water until it is free of soap.
Once washing is complete, roll up in a dry towel and squeeze out excess water.
Remove from the towel and lay �at until completely dry. For faster drying time, place directly in front of a fan.
Do not machine wash or dry.
Never use bleach on TripleFlex.
