Best Answer

It depends on whether you are talking about clothes or washing clothes...

Permanent press is a chemical process in which fabrics are permanently shaped and treated for wrinkle resistance.

The permanent press setting on a washer sprays moisture during the spin cycle to maintain the moisture content and reduce wrinkling.

Most older dryers also feature an automatic permanent press setting, which puts clothes through a cool-down cycle at the end of the normal heated drying cycle. Modern dryers tend to include this as a standard feature.

How do you refresh a crease in permanent press?

Permanent press clothes are treated with chemicals to maintain a better shape, and obtain less wrinkles. However if you need to refresh a crease in permanent press clothing, the best way to do it, is by placing a plain pillow case over the fabric after lining up your crease on the iron board, the pillow case serves as protection from the direct heat from the iron onto the chemically treated fabric. You may also set the iron on the permanent press setting, however depending on the fabric, with out the protection the direct heat may still do some damage to the fabric.
