And when it comes to washing whites, the number one rule is to wash them separately from darks and colours. Making sure \u201cour whites\u201d stay the brightest white they can be all year round, is a tricky task. Here is a clever tip \u2013 try using a bit of dishwashing liquid, the problem can be solved. Also, avoid using fabric softener on the white shirts, as fabric softener residue can leave a grey tint.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 When its colours \u2013 Some school uniforms come with a jersey and come in a range of colours such as navy blue, maroon, dark green and even black, depending on the school. Whether it\u2019s made from cotton or a mix of fabrics blends, you may want to turn the garment inside out to prevent fading or fabric damage, especially if the jersey has any embroidery on it. Wash on the gentlest cycle possible with similar colours.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The Blazer \u2013 Blazers are not as delicate as they look, most of them are made from polyester which make them easy to wash, but double check the care label in case the garment needs any special laundry attention. Check the pockets because is sure to be a tissue, wrappers or pens in the pockets and then wash on a cool temperature with other dark items. Try to dry naturally, as this will prevent the blazer from shrinking.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Ink Stains \u2013 If you do find that there is an ink stain from a ballpoint pen, use hairspray. Spray on the stain, wait 30 seconds for it to do its magic then wipe off with a damp cloth.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Sweat stains and sporting kits \u2013 one that requires more laundry attention. Children engage in a range of activities at school and might get stains either way. The best way to deal with this is to get rid of the stains as soon as possible. The longer it stays, the more difficult it is to remove. Sweat stains and even grass stains from the rugby field and again wash as soon as possible to make sure you stop stains and smells settling in. Grass stains will come out with a rub of a white vinegar and baking soda mixed into a paste before going in the washing machine.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 School bags \u2013 there is a way of cleaning it up so it\u2019s fresh for the next term without too much of a hassle. Just put it in the washing machine and include vinegar to get rids of the smell. \u201cCleaning them in the washing machine rather than the sink ensures you get all the niggly bits that end up stuck in the nooks and crannies,\u201d says Emma Fowler of TapTuck. \u201cYou can also pop the bag in a delicate washing bag if you\u2019re worried about damaging your machine\u201d, she added!<\/p>\n<p>In a nutshell, the other benefits regarding the TapTuck app, it is the first complete cashless campus solution that covers everything from the Tuck Shop (in offering healthy meal options), Uniform Shop (even second-hand uniforms), school payments, stationery, electronics, market days &amp; events, coaching and even extra lessons<\/p>\n<p>For more TapTuck hints, tips and school related solutions then go to www.taptuck.co.za<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"post-views-icon dashicons dashicons-chart-bar\"><\/span> <span class=\"post-views-label\">Press Release Views since 1 July 2022:<\/span> <span class=\"post-views-count\">82<\/span> <\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/taptuck-has-your-school-solutions-covered\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republish for Free Republish This Story Republish our articles for free, online or in print, under a Creative Commons license.
