Special Care Instructions |
The ODU is machine washable on a permanent press setting. Wash uniforms in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not use chlorine bleach. If hand washing, wring gently and rinse with warm water. For best results, dry ODU items at a low heat or tumble dry for 10 minutes, then hang on a rust-proof hanger to finish drying. Uniform may be pressed but be sure to set iron to the cooler setting for nylon/cotton blends. A pressing cloth is helpful to avoid shiny spots from the iron. Military creases are not authorized. |
