Silk and Satin Garment Release Silk and satin garments occasionally have weaknesses that are not always apparent prior to dry cleaning. Even with the utmost care we give to these fabrics, some color loss or discoloration may occur if the garment was poorly dyed at the manufacturer.  Due to the very fine weave of most silk it has a natural tendency to shift. Because of this shifting, some splitting and/or discoloration may result especially in certain areas such as; elbow, underarm, collar, waist and seat.  In addition some foods, beverages and cosmetics may also cause splitting or leave permanent stains, or color change. Exposure to sunlight can also cause some color loss. Silks and satins are extremely fragile.  Therefore in time, besides the possible splitting, shifting, discoloration and loss of luster, some pilling may occur.  I have read the above statement and understand that even with the utmost professional care you will give to my silk or satin garment, you are not held responsible should any of the above mentioned effects occur.  Customer Signature: __________________________ Date: ______________________ Fax to: Pacific Coast Cleaners (310) 545-1183 Print This Page
