The iron leaves a 
shine or an imprint 
on the garment.
The surface to be ironed was 
uneven, for instance because 
you were ironing over a seam 
or a fold in the garment.
Perfect Care is safe on all garments. The shine or 
imprint is not permanent and will disappear when 
you wash the garment. Avoid ironing over seams or 
folds or you can place a cotton cloth over the area 
to be ironed to avoid imprints.
