    This does work, I bought a cheap bottle of it at a Family Dollar store!

    Downey Wrinkle Releaser does a good job. It removes almost all signs of wrinkles, old seam lines or hard set creases.

    Use a mixture of 1/3 vodka to 2/3 water in a spray bottle. Spray on fabric & press with hot iron.. Will take out any & all wrinkles!

    I starch with heavy starch to give it a crisp look. the dollar store has a good heavy duty starch and it lasts forever. gets rid of all those nasty wrinkles and leaves it nice and crisp.
