Hidden defects, damage and emphasis of wear and tear on textile clothing
After dry-cleaning, hidden defects exhibit themselves and wear and tear on the clothing is emphasised. Some parts of clothing made from highly fashionable materials cannot be cleaned whilst preserving all of the fashionable effects of a new unused product.
In accordance with the provisions of Section 2594 Civil Code, we would like to point out that certain defects are accentuated when cleaning is performed (impurities are washed away). Signs of wear and tear cannot be removed from clothing by being washed. The dry cleaners shall not be held liable for defects created through cleaning of a defective order. We inform you of these facts and ask for statement by you (your signature on the job order) whether you wish your order to be cleaned subject to this condition.
A product may exhibit the following defects:
- staining of dark colours onto light linings and vice versa
- low colour permanency – in the light, in an abrasion – bleaching, lightening, uneven colouring
- low colour permanency of leather edging, collars etc., combined with textiles – possibility of staining, decolouration of textile parts of clothing
