How To Care For Your Flag

Creases, Wrinkles, and Folds

Upon receiving your flag and removing it from the protective pouch, there will be creases in the fabric from being folded.  These creases will smooth out on their own over time but can also be removed quickly.  The fastest method will be to carefully iron the fabric parts of the flag on a medium heat setting taking care to avoid overheating any area.  Like most fabrics, the flag can burn if the iron is too hot.

Cleaning

If your flag ever needs cleaning, mild detergent can be used to spot clean small areas or throw the entire flag by itself into the washing machine, again with mild detergent, and cold water on the delicate cycle.  Tumble dry on low to remove dampness and wrinkles, but only until dry.  Around 10 minutes.

Care

Extend the life of your flag by inspecting it regularly for any signs of wear.  Look for wearing fabric or broken threads that may occur at the fly end (the end that is furthest from the flag pole). Trimming and re-hemming torn or frayed ends will help prolong the life of your flag.

Do not fly your flag where wind will whip it against rough surfaces, guy wires, cables, etc.  These can cause rips or tears which will quickly spread. 

Keep flagpole surfaces free of heavy dirt, rust, scale and corrosion. They will also damage your flag.

Please keep in mind that a flag is made of cloth and will deteriorate over time regardless of how well it is constructed.
