How to Clean an American Flag

1. Use a clean, damp, soft cloth with a color safe detergent to scrub the flag. Let hang dry, never fold a wet flag over itself as the colors could bleed over  time.

2. Use a delicate cycle in your washing machine with a color safe detergent and let hang dry.

3. Call a local dry cleaner, some of them even do it for free. 

All of these tips can be applied to our racing flags as well.
