What is the best way to wash corduroy? A. Use lukewarm water and suds, lifting the garment up and down in the water. Rub badly soiled spots with a soft brush. Rinse in clear water and hang up without squeezing or wringing out the water. Shake it occasionally while dryng. When thoroughly dry, raise the nap by stroking with a soft brush in the same direction as the ribs run.. An automatic dryer Is Ideal for corduroy, since it fluffs up the nap as it dries. Q.

This sterilizes them, too. Q. How can I remedy some of our doors which drag or scrape on the floor? A. Tighten the screws that hold the hinges in place. If they refuse to tighten, fill the screw holes with plastic wood and try again when dry.
