My dd uses diprobase ointment, considerable amounts of it and her steroid is prepared in white parrafin, so I rinse all her clothes many many times before putting in the machine. The machine still gets grease lined, and I hot wash on empty regularly. These washes always feel sort of greasy still when done, no matter how many rinses and how many washes they go through. I am now convinced that they take longer to dry than other clothes, (something to do with the grease not being rinsed out?) Anyway, the question is, what would happen if I were to get a tumble dryer? Would the grease get heated up in the dryer and slowly clog it up (and coat everything in melted grease!) Does anyone have any experience of drying clothes when using ointments please?
