FUR CLEANING

Fur Cleaning

At Westbank, we strive to offer the best fur cleaning service in the Austin and Central Texas area. All of the fur garments are cleaned and stored in our climate-controlled facility. Fur cleaning and glazing are necessary and important to maintain your fur’s original brilliance and luster. It also helps keep your fur’s leather soft and supple allowing for longer wear. The correct and proper care of furs is a sophisticated process. .  Whether you wear your fur every day, several times a season, or not at all, Fur cleaning should be conducted once each year in order to preserve their beauty and longevity.

Fur attracts dust and particles even when it’s just hanging in the closet.  These particles cause the hair to stick together and produce a flattened appearance.  The dust and grime can become trapped in the hide of the skin preventing it from breathing, and this dirt robs your fur of its natural sheen.  Simply said, dust and grime can negatively affect the appearance, feel, and endurance of your fur.

Fur Maintenance

The experts recommend a yearly cleaning to remove dust, dirt, oils, and other soiling substances that can accumulate on your furs even without wear. Please note that the fur cleaning process is very different from the dry cleaning process used for clothing. When Westbank Dry Cleaning cleans your fur, we use a method that has been specifically designed to clean furs. First, the process removes dirt and excess oils. Next, glazing occurs to bring out the natural sheen and luster. This process preserves the elegance of your treasured fur providing maximum durability.

Westbank’s cleaning is the most important thing you can do for your fur.  This is the only way to maintain or restore the original beauty of your fur.  In the fall you will see and feel “the Westbank Dry Cleaning difference.” Bring your furs, fur-trimmed coats, and shearlings to any of our convenient locations, or sign up for our pick-up and delivery service at www.westbankdrycleaning.com.
