Care tips for blue jeans are easy when you know what to do and how to do it. If 
you have had your jeans for some time, you probably have some stains on them that
you cannot remove no matter how hard you try. Try using a blue Jeans Care Tip for
these tough stains, like turning them inside out to wash or using a gentle detergent.
These blue jeans care tips will help keep your jeans looking great for longer.

## Spot Clean

The first thing you need to do is make sure your blue jeans are completely dry. 
You can remove the stain by rubbing the stain out with a cotton ball but make sure
that the area is dry before you do anything else. If you have white stained jeans,
use the whitewash. Next, you need to rub some baby powder on the stain to absorb
the stain, then use a sponge and clean white vinegar. Rinse with cool water and 
spot clean with a soft sponge. Do not ever rub the fabric again because you will
just cause damage to the nap and the dye.

## Do not wash your jeans frequently.

Wash your jeans only when required.  Depending upon your activity level and how 
frequently you wear your blue jeans, these general guidelines may be helpful:

 * wash your Blue Jean once a week during the summer months
 * once a month during the colder winter months.
 * Be sure not to wash it more than four times a month.

## Turn your blue jeans inside out

The next Blue Jean tip is to only wash your jeans inside out. While you might think
this is self-explanatory.  If you don’t, your blue jeans are going to fade over 
time. Also, the outside surface of the blue jeans will suffer more friction wear.

## Wash Jeans Gently

Use a blue wash detergent or gentle detergents like Woolite and use the delicate
cycle in cool or cold water. Do not wash blue denim jeans in hot water. It is not
good for your jeans. It will cause them to fade faster.

Wash in cool or cold water and add one cup of white vinegar in the same manner as
you would bleach. White vinegar contains a mild acid that helps lock in dye and 
prevent fabric bleeding, especially if washing brand new blue jeans. Additionally,
vinegar is a natural bacteria killer that neutralizes nasty germs that may be living
on your jeans.

## Never use the dryer to dry your jeans.

If you have some blue jeans in the wash, do not put them in the dryer and hang dry.
Even if you want to keep your blue jeans nice and dry, you should avoid using the
dryer. You should also avoid hanging your jeans on a line outdoors to dry. Exposure
to strong direct sunlight will fade your jeans. You should allow them to air dry
inside your home.

Caring for blue denim jeans is not that difficult. You will be able to wear your
blue jeans for a long time without having to worry about them fading. Following 
these blue jeans care tips will ensure that you have long-lasting blue jeans that
you can enjoy for as long as possible.
