Is it possible to wash bags and plastic film in a car?

Nowadays, many are worried about environmental issues and are trying to reduce the amount of plastic waste. However, biodegradable bags are still not very common. Therefore, the question naturally arises: is it possible to wash different packages, including in a car, how to do this so as not to spoil the view? Is there any other way to avoid the chaotic accumulation of plastic in a house or urn? The best option is to refuse packages. If they certainly need to be washed, it is better to abandon automation.

Why is it better to wash the bags by hand rather than in a washing machine?

The cellophane, plastic, and polyethylene that go into the bag are thermally unstable. Hot water deforms them; cellophane becomes toxic when heated. In addition, paint easily comes off plastic, and after machine or coarse hand washing, the packages “peel off” and lose their attractiveness.

How to wash packages

If you still have many packages that need to be washed, consider the following recommendations:

  1. For handwashing - soak the bags in a basin so that they are not cramped. Do not rub, but scroll water, do not forget to turn each one out to better clean it from the inside. If you need to wash heavy dirt, use a soft sponge. Change the water more often.
  2. When machine washing, load the drum only halfway and set the gentle mode, for example, the “Wool” or “Sport” program, turn off the spin.

How to wash a bulk film after repair

During the repair, a wide film was and remains the most popular method of protecting furniture from dirt and dust. She doesn’t have to be thrown away at the end of work: the cape will remain unchanged for as long as necessary until the next repair or whitewashing of the ceilings. However, folding the film dirty is not recommended, especially if it is transparent. At a minimum, rubbish will constantly fly from it, at a maximum, the sides will be easily confused, and dust and lime will fall on the furniture.

Tip
Wash one cover film at a time. So it’s better washed, and it will be easier for you to find a place to hang out the material for drying.

How to clean? Large volumes, most likely, simply will not fit into the drum of the washing machine. In this case, purityis.decorexpro.com/en/ magazine advises rinsing the film in the bathroom by collecting water and adding a little detergent for dishes or liquid soap.

The film does not accumulate water, so it dries quickly. For the same reason, an absorbent cloth or a pair of basins should be placed under the dryer. Automatic drying is strictly prohibited: the material does not tolerate high temperatures.

The same care is required annually by a covering film of greenhouses. It is important that the plants receive maximum light, and that fungus, microbes and other particles that are dangerous for the sprouts do not accumulate on the surface.

Tip
In the presence of serious contamination, do not rub the film and try to “tear off” the dirt, this will only damage the plastic. It is easier to discard or recycle it. It is preferable to replace old species with biodegradable ones, in terms of their operational qualities they are not inferior to traditional ones. The difference is only in the service life, but in practice, ordinary polyethylene is not eternal: after a year of another permanent use, cuts, breakouts or other defects appear on it.
