5.1. For Ironing Clothes

1. Préparer la solution : Dilute Linit Starch with water according to the desired stiffness (refer to Section 4.2).
2. Appliquer sur le tissu :
   • Spray Method: Pour the diluted solution into a clean spray bottle. Lightly mist the garment evenly until damp.
   • Soak Method: For a very crisp finish, immerse the garment in the diluted starch solution. Wring out excess liquid until the garment is damp.

6. Entretien

6.1. Stockage

Store the Linit Starch bottle upright in a cool, dry place. Avoid freezing or prolonged exposure to high temperatures. Keep the cap tightly sealed to prevent evaporation and contamination.

6.2. Nettoyage

Rinse any spray bottles or containers used for diluted starch with clean water after each use to prevent clogging or residue buildup.

7. Dépannage

If you encounter issues while using Linit Starch, consider the following:

• Uneven Stiffness: Ensure the starch solution is evenly applied to the fabric. For spray application, mist thoroughly. For soaking, ensure the garment is fully saturated.
• White Residue on Fabric: This can occur if too much starch is used, or if the starch is not fully diluted. Try using a lighter dilution ratio or ensuring the starch is completely mixed with water. Ironing at too low a temperature can also contribute; ensure the iron is hot enough for the fabric.
• Spray Bottle Clogging: Rinse the spray nozzle and tube with warm water after each use to prevent starch residue from drying and clogging.
