That being said, you have stains that are a combination of both characteristics and need some extra help to be removed. This is professionally called spotting and pre-spotting. A good cleaners will examine every garment prior to going into the dry cleaning machine and either remove certain stains that will not come out in dry cleaning or add certain chemical combinations to help the solvent remove the stain. That is similar to using Spray and Wash prior to washing your clothes. After a garment has been dry cleaned there will sometimes be visible stains left that may be removed by further spotting and then go to the pressing department or have to be re-cleaned. There are times when a decision is made that the stain isn’t coming out and a tag will be attached to the hanger letting the consumer know the cleaner at least tried and was unable to remove the stain. Low quality and poorly trained spotters typically use a lot more stain tags than do quality cleaners and well trained spotters do. The old adage of “You get what you pay for” certainly applies to the dry cleaning industry.
When you pull your clothes from your washer, smell them, and if they smell clean and fresh, then your washer is probably performing well. It will be the drying thoroughness and speed that makes the difference. That, in and of itself, is a broad question. First of all let’s understand what dry cleaning is. Dry cleaning is no different than washing and drying your clothes at home with the main exception of the liquid used is not water. Various solvents are used to clean clothes. Water is a solvent as it will dissolve things like sugars, juices, coffee, etc. Dry cleaning solvent typically dissolves oil based stains. Some examples are grease from foods and cooking, car greases and oils and other items to some degree that might be dissolved by paint turpentine. Some soaps added to dry cleaning solvent have the ability to suspend some moisture in the solvent helping slightly to remove some water soluble stains.
Now, when should you dry clean your clothes? There is no simple answer here. Ideally, wear it once – clean it. This is what I did with every garment that could be dry cleaned (even typically washed items like jeans and golf shirts) that I wore. I, fortunately, didn’t have to pay for this so economics was not a factor for me. Clothes do last longer when dry cleaned and typically suffer far less apparent wear and tear signs than do clothes washed at home. Wool suits, sweaters, pants, skirts, and like items can safely be worn for 3 or more times with no ‘real’ effect on the garment. That is assuming that you are not spilling things on them, coming into contact with heavily soiled surfaces, or sweating like crazy. Invisible stains are the ‘Trojan horse’ of stains on garments. With age these type of stains will turn yellow (oxidize) and be very difficult if not impossible to remove. White wines, soda, soups, perspiration, body oils etc. are examples of invisible stains. If you spill something on your clothes remember where and what and point it out at the cleaners and make sure it’s noted at time of dropoff. Sheer garments like silks and rayons should generally be worn once and cleaned. Garments coming into direct contact with your skin (especially the upper body) should be cleaned as soon as possible. Synthetics cam go longer with out cleaning than natural fiber garments.
