Is it possible to iron a shirt with a hair dryer and a long metal ruler?

Ironing is also done with steam, which I do not see in that improvised version - although you could sprinkle water on the shirt before heating it with the dryer. However, the metal ruler is really not heavy enough to do this properly. It won't work.

What dries faster for clothes dryer or clothesline?

Clothes dry faster in a clothes dryer compared to a clothesline because a dryer uses heat and air circulation to evaporate moisture from the clothing quickly. However, using a clothesline is more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.


What happens to your dryer if the load is soaking wet?

If the load is soaking wet, it will take longer to dry in the dryer as the machine will need more time to evaporate the excess moisture. This can put strain on the dryer's motor and heating element as it works harder to dry the clothes. Over time, this extra strain can lead to premature failure of the dryer components.

How do you safely wash a T-shirt?

It depends on the color and fabric of the shirt. Check the tag in the neck of the t-shirt for specific washing instructions. Always wash your t-shirt with other items of the same color and fabric to prevent discoloration or fading. In general, we recommend that our customers keep shirts out of the dryer to prevent shrinking and cracking/chipping of the shirt's design. More on t-shirt care at www.shoprockamerica.com.
