So I've bought the "removes wrinkles" by spraying on your wet/dry clothes. It works so-so. I don't have any desire to iron since it's a big hassle. I have to pull all the gear out to set it up then put it away. But I want the DH's work clothes to look nice. Sigh. Is there any miracle product on the market that would help? Anything I can add to the dryer while its going.
I should note, I hang and fold his clothes as SOON as they dryer is done. STILL have wrinkles. |

I think the trick is pulling them out of the dryer at exactly the right time--if you let them get too dry then wrinkles set in, but if you pull them out when the majority of the moisture is gone but before they get too dry then they'll be less wrinkled. Some fabrics tend to wrinkle more than others though, I have some things that no matter what I do they're going to be wrinkled unless you iron them. So if you really want to avoid ironing you may have to go shopping for things that advertise themselves as "wrinkle-free". |

This is really the most important, but if we have wrinkles we lightly spray our clothes with plain water, and then let them dry before wearing. |

Huh, good tip.
I did buy another product that's a spray on then stretch the fabric to dry unwrinkled. We'll see if it works. ;) |

Test those two products (since you have them) against plain water and see which works best...I'm curious. ☺ |

I bought the downy wrinkle release worked pretty good, not that iron pressed look but the big wrinkles came out. I kinda draw the line on having to iron my 5 year olds clothes. |
