Lerak Batik Cleaner can be purchased here.
To ensure your batik purchase remains a treasured possession for years to come, here are some tips to take care of it:
Please avoid machine wash. Hand washing batik is our recommended mode of cleaning. Do not use chlorine bleach, strong detergents or brighteners. Avoid heavy wringing or twisting of the batik to squeeze out water. Do not put the batik in the dryer
It is common for batik to bleed excess dye. If you do not have the lerak batik cleaner, we recommend adding one cup (detergent cup size) of white vinegar into the water. Soak and stir gently for not more than 5 minutes. Hang to dry. This helps to set the dye and reduce colour bleeding.
