At Plutus Brands, we recommend following these guidelines to ensure the longevity of your faux fur throws and blankets.
Q2: How often should I wash my faux fur throw or blanket?
A2: Washing frequency depends on usage. If the throw or blanket is lightly used, washing it once or twice a season is generally sufficient. Spot cleaning is often suitable for minor stains. Follow the care instructions and use your judgment based on how frequently the item is used. At Plutus Brands, we recommend considering these factors and adopting a care routine that best suits your needs.
Q3: Can faux fur throws and blankets be dried in a dryer?

At Plutus Brands, we recommend avoiding the use of a dryer and opting for air drying to preserve the quality of your faux fur throws and blankets.
Q4: How do I remove wrinkles from a faux fur throw or blanket?
A4: If wrinkles or creases appear, use a steamer on low heat or hang the faux fur throw or blanket in a steamy bathroom. Allow the wrinkles to naturally release without applying direct heat, which could damage the fibers. Gently fluff the fur with your hands. At Plutus Brands, we recommend using a steamer or steamy environment for wrinkle removal to keep your faux fur items in optimal condition.
Q5: Can I brush my faux fur throw or blanket to maintain its appearance?
A5: Yes, you can use a soft-bristled brush to gently fluff and maintain the appearance of your faux fur throw or blanket. Brush in the direction of the fur's nap to avoid damaging the fibers. Regular brushing can help remove any loose dirt and restore the fur's natural luster. At Plutus Brands, we recommend incorporating gentle brushing into your routine to ensure the ongoing beauty of your faux fur throws and blankets.
Q6: How should I store faux fur throws and blankets during the off-season?
A6: Store faux fur throws and blankets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid compressing them in storage, as this can lead to permanent creases or matting.

At Plutus Brands, we recommend following these storage practices to preserve the quality of your faux fur throws and blankets.
Q7: Can I use spot cleaners on faux fur throws and blankets?
