As a supplier of faux fur coats, I've witnessed firsthand the allure and charm these luxurious pieces bring to any wardrobe. Faux fur coats are not only stylish but also a cruelty - free alternative to real fur. However, to keep them looking their best, proper brushing is essential. In this blog, I'll share the best way to brush a faux fur coat, ensuring it maintains its softness, volume, and overall appeal.
Understanding Your Faux Fur Coat
Before diving into the brushing process, it's crucial to understand the type of faux fur on your coat. Faux fur can vary in texture, length, and density. Some are short and sleek, while others are long and shaggy. Knowing these characteristics will help you choose the right brush and technique.
For shorter faux fur, a soft - bristled brush is usually sufficient. It can easily penetrate the fur and remove any debris or tangles without causing damage. On the other hand, longer faux fur may require a wider - toothed comb or a brush with longer bristles to reach deep into the fur and keep it looking fluffy.
Preparing for Brushing
- Choose the Right Location: Find a clean, well - lit area to brush your faux fur coat. A place with minimal dust and debris will prevent additional dirt from getting into the fur during the brushing process.
- Inspect the Coat: Before you start brushing, take a close look at the coat for any loose threads, tears, or stains. If you notice any issues, it's best to address them before brushing. For example, you can repair loose threads with a needle and thread or spot - clean stains using a mild detergent.
- Select the Appropriate Brush or Comb: As mentioned earlier, the type of brush or comb you choose depends on the length and texture of the faux fur. A natural bristle brush is a great option as it is gentle on the fur and can effectively remove dirt. A wide - toothed comb can also be useful for detangling long faux fur.
The Brushing Process
- Start Gently: Begin by lightly brushing the fur in the direction of the natural grain. This helps to loosen any surface dirt and debris. Use short, gentle strokes to avoid pulling or tugging on the fur. If you encounter any tangles, be patient and work through them slowly.
- Work in Sections: Divide the coat into sections, such as the front, back, sleeves, and collar. Brushing in sections ensures that you cover the entire coat evenly and don't miss any spots. For example, start with the collar and work your way down the front of the coat, then move to the back and sleeves.
- Flip the Coat Over: Once you've brushed one side of the coat, carefully flip it over and repeat the process on the other side. This ensures that both sides of the fur are clean and well - groomed.
- Pay Attention to the Edges and Seams: The edges and seams of the coat are often where dirt and debris can accumulate. Use a smaller brush or a cotton swab to gently clean these areas. Make sure to be extra careful around the seams to avoid damaging the stitching.
Special Considerations
- Static Electricity: Faux fur coats can sometimes generate static electricity, which can make the fur look messy and attract more dust. To reduce static, you can use an anti - static spray or run a dryer sheet over the fur. This will help to keep the fur looking smooth and prevent it from sticking together.
- Deep Cleaning: If your faux fur coat is particularly dirty or has a strong odor, you may need to give it a deep clean. However, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. In some cases, you can spot - clean the coat with a mild detergent and water, while in other cases, it may be best to take it to a professional cleaner.
- Storage: Proper storage is also important for maintaining the quality of your faux fur coat. When not in use, store the coat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. You can hang the coat on a padded hanger to prevent it from losing its shape.
