How Does Modern Dry Cleaning Work 

I've sat through the whole video, I felt like I just graduated from Laundry Academy. This video was beyond my expectations. Amazing!

Since a child I have been wondering how this is done. So many hours of speculation. This morning I wake up and decide I've had enough. I'm gonna find out today, one way or another. So thank you!

Excellent presentation. I have always had a fascination with all technology. This video gives me a whole new level of respect and admiration for all those involved with this amazing cleaning process. The scientists, chemists, engineers, craftsmen, and the dry cleaning industry workers all have my deepest respect.

this is television level documentary🔥

This was amazingly in depth education about Dry Cleaning. Wow!

My first job was at a laundromat in a small town. I learned a lot there. They did wet and dry cleaning (mostly for hospitals), but used older methods, machines, and technology. Based on what I have learned after watching this video and from what I have heard over the years, they lost a lot of business due to the inability to innovate with modern technology. Customers were not happy with their 'cleaned' garments. Their individual customers and contracts with businesses began to dwindle. They didn't make any changes or learn from the industry of new improvements. In the end, they lost it all. I knew the owner and his wife (sadly no longer with us) as well as his family. Sad to see it happen, but also interesting to see what the modern industry is like today.

This might actually be the best educational video I have ever seen. Really outstanding work, this is an achievement!

I really liked the info on Clothes labels and the difference between Organic (hydrocarbon) Solvents and TetraChloroEtheline.

ABSOLUTELY INCORRECT: THOMAS JENNINGS invented a process called 'dry scouring,' a forerunner of modern dry cleaning. He patented the process in 1821, making him likely the first black person in America to receive a patent. Get it Correct..

This education is worth paying for. Brilliant.

Thank you cameraman for going back in time to get the clips and information for us!

Thank you for sharing the whole process with us! It was worth watching! I've noticed that many companies, such as OXXO Care Cleaners, are now adopting eco-friendly technology and discontinuing the use of harsh chemicals in their cleaning processes. They're also providing 24/7 pick-up and drop-off services, as well as same-day laundry services.

I would like to thank the camera for working so hard to driver this piece of art

Excellent presentation with great know how of the dry cleaning - I never thought, this is such a complex process. Wonderful !

I love this video so brilliantly made ☺️

Excellent & fantastic 👍👍 experience & explanation 👍

Thanks for translating this video into English because the characters in the video lips are not synchronizing with the video. That's an indication that this video was recorded in it's original non english language.🤔.

Excellent service 👏

I expected to watch a show about just cleaning garments in solvents like Naptha. I was very pleasantly surprised. Thank you...

Wow amazing video👍

Excellent and very good learning experience for me outstanding

This is enough information for dryclean and all Merci beaucoup ❤😊

1:53 Still dry cleaning the clothes from Chernobyl I see 😅

a very professional and attractive video production.

So the clothes basically get tumble soaked in harsh solvents?

This is really an excellent (Russian?) presentation. The details, processes and people involved in dry cleaning are complicated to someone like me who just throws his laundry in the washer and dryer. Is the solvent used repeatedly or just once? It would seem that dry cleaners would have to work with large volumes of clothes to be commercially viable. Thank you

very very informational and funny too👏

I can't believe they removed the buttons from the items 😮

Incredible video in nigga my opinion very informative

Dry cleaners today use starch and Perchloroethylene or "Perc" as it's know in the Dry Cleaning industry. Sometimes, they will use Natural Gas as a cleaner in the machine. Also, dry cleaners use a ton of steam too. So much in fact, they use a massive boiler, like 10 to 20 ton boilers. I have been inside so many boiler rooms, and every single one of them gets really hot. In the winter time, it's not so bad. In the summertime, however, its awful. It gets up to 140 degrees, (or 60C.), in there. They also have water heaters in that room too. You only get 15 minutes inside so whatever you're repairing better get done quick in those hot summer days.

I don't think my dry cleaners does all of this. It seems they throw it in, put it on a hanger, and call it a day. lol

Nice video , a bit curious why we don't make regular home laundry machines. Drywash safe with that chemical tetrachloroethylene. Then just sell tetrachloroethylene so you can drywash at home in the rare cases you need to do a few suits.

I love listening to this well tuned ai. It's hilarious to hear it attempt to sound like documentary narrator.

Nice video 👌👍

I'm impressed

Am very interested to do it in my home town but I don't actually know much it will cost me to start and getting all those machines may you help me please.

I want to visit this shop

What are the negative effects of dry cleaning? Perchloroethylene (PERC), a potential human carcinogen, is the most commonly used dry cleaning solvent. Symptoms associated with exposure include: depression of the central nervous system; damage to the liver and kidneys; impaired memory; confusion; dizziness; headache; drowsiness; and eye, nose, and throat irritation.

Were did u get all this machines from ???

ahhhhh labels... nowadays I tend to cut off all the labels because they are stiff, long and a few layers of them! I hate it! It makes it uncomfortable to wear especially when the labels are where I tuck in my blouse or shirt!!!

The mommy milkers were an unexpected but welcomed surprise.

I didn't know there are still people who bring their shirts or pants for wet cleaning to such as high-end large cleaning facility. With newer generation fewer people would do that.

Wikipedia says faraday is falsely credited with the synthesis of tetrachloroethylene

I feel cheated. In my native language there's shops that are called "chemical launderettes" and I've always assumed it was something different from the Anglophone dry cleaners.

How can I find it ....

sound of torque oscillations once crunk balances not outweighs beard strums in audio

I had a cotton welding jacket that you couldn't wash as it would ruin the flame retardance.

Hello , I would love to start a dry-cleaning business, Anyone knows where can I get this machine?

skip to two minutes when he actually started answering the questions

So you get the hangers for free or you have to give them back?

The intro was a bit annoying, but great information given throughout. Thanks

Nice

How about the maid? I want to know what happened to her…

Not going to try this but a bit curious what would happen if you dump either mineral spirit , turpentine, kerosene ,...etc into you washing machine and just shut off the water supply lines to the washing machine. Humm apart from not disposing properly into the sewer ,would it work like a dry cleaning home machine. Obviously toxic , not safe , and flammable but if you can succeed with those I image you should be able just to get tetrachloroethylene and do it with that. Which would be non-flammable, safer , ...

Wow

How can these items go through so many processes and hands and still be remembered which owners they each belong to?

Basically what I am getting at is what makes a dry cleaning washing machine so different then a home or regular washing machine other then the detergent/ solvent you add ? Is temp regulation an issue , disposal of the solvent not down a sewer pipe ,... ??? What makes it impractical for homes ?

Is that Yuri Lowenthal doing the VO for this? 😂

I agree with last comment from one year ago

10:50 The look on this kid's face says "The guy that owns this garment makes more in one day than I do in a whole year."

Glossed over and not really true. The dangers and huge health risks of modern dry cleaning are horrendous, and are all very real. You've never dealt with carcinogens like the ones shown here. Aqua cleaning, and brand new forms of dry cleaning are safer, but not completely healthy.

What was the original language ?

Can I ask you for job opportunities

Time wasting

It was actually a slave that invented dry cleaning, Look it up, he just stole his invention.

“HOW DOES MODERN DRY CLEANING WORK” is the name of the video… I saw 40 minutes of brain numbing RUBBISH aimed at very young children, and the video went deep into great detail about everything that is NOT RELATED TO DRY CLEANING. A COMPLETE waste of time, content creators need to USE ACCURATE VIDEO TITLES!!!!

This has absolutely nothing to do with science.

Why yall steal this footage from another country in Dub your voice over it
