Tjeccles Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 So the apartment above mine had a pipe burst and water got all over my apartment. My gloves were unfortunately in the splash zone. What's the best way to get them dry without having them shrink?
Frank75139 Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 I’m not an expert with the gloves but I was always told with shoes to stuff them with news paper and let them sit out. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Chopper Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 Yeah, the newspaper technique is a good strategy. Pack 'em with newspaper and change the damp paper out when it absorbs enough water to be soaked through.
Tjeccles Posted May 4, 2018 Author Posted May 4, 2018 I've done that. Is it possible to wash them? I'm not sure which pipe it was just hoping it wasn't sewage
Retrofire Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 Yes, you can wash them just don’t put them in a dryer. Lay them out flat on a towel to dry. They will be a little tight when you put them on again but they will regain their flexibility.

Frank75139 Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 I’d say cold is your best bet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
