Raising the Nap
PRY giving your cloth coat or skirt an iron tonic when the first signs of shininess appear. Cover the material with a damp cloth to soften the fibres, then pass a hot irom very close to the damp cloth, but not touching it. This brings up the nap and does away with the tired, shiny look. Don’t iron in the ordinary way; it would flatten out the nap instead of raising it.
