Dry Cleaning Question - Whites

The last time my dry cleaner laundered my white suits, they ruined them. They were tinged with a brown film (probably the cleaning solution they use).

Is there an alternative I can use for my dry clean only whites? Something I can tell the dry cleaner?

Thanks

Can't wash these particular items - dry cleaning (or some close alternative) is a must.

Thanks!

There are Dry Cleaning at home products that you can try if you havent already.

There is one from "Woolite Dry Cleaner's Secret Dry Cleaning Cloths" that have great reviews.

If you cant find it in stores, I know that Amazon sells them.
Should give them a try and see what happens, from what it sounds like it cant be any worse then what the real dry cleaner is doing to your clothes.

Good luck!

Sounds like you need a new dry cleaner. I've had white stuff dry cleaned successfully without the problem you are talking about.

Instead of it being the cleaning solution, perhaps it's their equipment.

I hope that they paid you for your clothes they ruined...

Geez, doesn't ANYONE know the answer to this question?! I don't either, but I'm tired of lookin' at the big Goose Egg!

(I would probably go to a DIFFERENT dry cleaners, explain when you drop the suits off, how this OTHER, SUB-STANDARD dry cleaner made your whites all grungy, and you hope THEY have away to prevent that from happening!)
