How does Dryel® work?

The Dryel fabric care system allows you to care for your dry clean only clothes and hand-washable items, including blazers, sweaters, vests, slacks, skirts, dresses and jackets in the convenience of your own home using your home dryer in about 30 minutes.

Stain removal solution penetrates the stain with an erasing motion. Stains are broken down and absorbed into the stain removal pad, which pulls the stain away from the garment.

Heat from the dryer activates the moist Dryel Cloth to create a gentle steam cleaning environment inside the redesigned zippered fabric bag. This environment protects clothes from shrinking while the steam gently removes odors, leaving your clothes smelling fresh.

Dryel also helps remove wrinkles. Most garments are ready to wear with little to no ironing.

How much will fit in the Dryel Bag?

The number of garments the bag will hold depends on the size of the items. You can put up to four garments in the bag as long as you allow enough room for the items to move freely. The bag should be a little less than half full.

What temperature setting should I use?

Set your dryer on a medium to high heat-timed setting for 30 minutes for best results. Dryers may vary in temperature. Clothes may be slightly damp when you remove them from the Dryel Bag. If needed, increase or decrease the time by 5 minutes.

How does the Dryel Stain Remover work?

The Dryel Stain Remover and the gentle pressure you apply loosens the stain from the fabric. The action of the bottle tip and the stain removal solution presses the stain through the fabric onto the absorbent pad. The pad absorbs the stain and helps to keep it from spreading.

Can I mix colors and fabrics?

You can mix colors in a load. For best results, group garments of similar fabric and weight together. To avoid lint transfer, care for items such as soft wool sweaters individually.
