Asked at the launderette

What temperature should I wash denim at on a Speed Queen Commercial Front Load (Quantum Gold Pro)?

Wash denim at 20C using the Normal programme on the Speed Queen Commercial Front Load (Quantum Gold Pro). Denim bleeds indigo and fades with hot water and frequent washing.

What spin speed is safe for denim?

Use 900 rpm. A gentler spin removes enough water without stressing the fibres. Wash inside out, cold, with like colours, and wash it less often.

Do I need the care label to wash denim?

No. Lavo identifies the fabric and condition from a photo of the garment itself and gives the exact setting for your Speed Queen Commercial Front Load (Quantum Gold Pro), even when the care label is faded, cut out, or missing.

What happens if I wash denim too hot?

Denim bleeds indigo and fades with hot water and frequent washing. That is why the safe setting here is 20C on the Normal programme.
