In summary, proper care for your bib overalls is essential for their durability and longevity. Avoid using harsh chemicals, overusing detergent, and wringing or twisting the overalls to remove excess water. Instead, use the right products and programs to ensure the longevity and longevity of your bib overalls.

  • Good Wednesday morning Nanny- Thanks for this jeans/overalls article. Good to know. Two overalls and two jeans. I wondered how to put through pants with zippers and especially the overalls. Love that reverse feature! Apparently my mother-in law had an accident or two with one husband and four sons in farm overalls :-O The wringer did not fare too well. It works, but has damage/cracks. There is no top bar over the rollers. See the photos I emailed you today.

  • My father wore bibs as a welder/electrician and my mother would safety pin the straps into the legs. I don’t care for bibs so I don’t have that problem. I wear jeans or coveralls. I like to clean off heavy mud from my work pants before going into the washer. I hang them on the line and hose them off. Takes only a few minutes and keeps the tank from getting sand everywhere in it. I have been around wringer washers since I was a little guy and still prefer to use them. I got suckered into buying one of those agitatorless washers 4 or 5 years ago. Looks like a work of art and just about as useful! If I needed a giant paperweight it would do nicely but as a washing machine it work’s like a saddle on a sow!! I bought the Maytag I use now at an auction over 25 year’s ago for half a buck! Other than a slight transmission oil leak it work’s like new. I’m going to be 69 in May and I believe the 1950 Maytag will outlive me. Good luck to you and your family and I will be perusal for more of your articles!!

  • Err that ain’t even dirty compared to my work gear, try being a driller’s offsider. My clothes actually weigh 5 kg more than when clean…… I am in the middle of soaking my pants in rig cleaner detergent with 10 litres of boiling water. Im stiring it with a 50cm long spirit level LOL. After 5 mins i have a slick on the water surface half inch thick!
