Q. |
Why is the rainkie
blankie™ called “The elemental baby
blanket™”? |
|
A. |
We chose this as our slogan, because the
rainkie blankie™ all-weather baby blanket
protects your little one from the “elements”
like rain, wind, or snow. It is also
“elemental” in terms of it being an
essential or basic baby item for parents.
Our goal was to create a baby product of the
highest quality that simplifies outings for
parents and provides a comfortable and
pleasurable experience for babies. No more
bulky car seat cover! |

Q. |
How does the rainkie
blankie™ water-repellent fabric work? |
|
A. |
The water-repellent side of
the rainkie blankie™ all-weather baby
blanket is what makes this baby item so
unique. It is made of a very soft polyester
microfiber with the highest quality DWR
(durable water-repellent) finish, which
causes water to simply bead-up and roll off.
Please review the
care instructions for some very
important tips on retaining your rainkie
blankie’s™ water-repellency. |

|
|
Q. |
How do I care for my
rainkie blankie™ all-weather baby blanket? |
|
A. |
We highly recommend washing
your rainkie blankie™ all-weather baby
blanket in a residue-free laundry detergent
(included with every online blanket
purchase). ANY fabric with a DWR (durable
water-repellent finish) can lose its
water-repellency from the residue build-up
caused by the chemicals in regular laundry
detergents. The residue-free detergent
supplied prevents this build-up and will
significantly prolong the life of your
all-weather baby blanket. Simply machine
wash your rainkie blankie™ on cold (NO
FABRIC SOFTENER) with ½ to 1 cap-full of the
residue-free detergent. You can allow your
rainkie blankie™ to air-dry or dry on a low
or fluff setting in your dryer. For more
details on the residue-free detergent that
comes with your rainkie blankie™, please

Q. |
What are the benefits of
the residue-free detergent that comes with
my rainkie blankie™? |
|
A. |
 Sport-Wash®
Residue-Free Laundry Detergent rinses
completely. It leaves nothing behind to
reduce fabric performance, and it greatly
contributes to maintaining the
water-repellency of your rainkie blankie™
all-weather baby blanket. Washing with
ordinary detergent and fabric softener
deposits chemical residue in the fabric
which reduces water-repellency after just a
few washes. This is true of ANY
water-repellent fabric. Sport-Wash® is
totally free of dyes, fragrance, phosphates,
oxidizers, color, fluorescent whiteners,
enzymes, and fillers making it perfect for
sensitive skin. Sport-Wash is biodegradable
and is ideal for the whole family…especially
baby! Sport-Wash® is also compatible with
high efficiency (he) washers. |
