Ask for guidance for the selected reference
Provide the code, colour and intended use. Request available washing, drying and pressing instructions, identifying any decorative elements. Do not assume that the wax range’s confirmed cotton content sets one treatment for every product, or that embroidery and trims share the same care method.
Separate making from later garment care
The maker may need to press a seam or prepare the material before sewing, while the customer needs instructions for the finished garment. Discuss both. A method used on a plain base may not suit a decorated section, and combining materials can create a garment-level question that one component’s guidance does not answer.
Explore the productsDefine any test before carrying it out
If your buyer requires a particular performance or care result, agree the method, acceptance criteria and responsible party. An informal home check does not create a laboratory certificate. Do not apply heat, chemicals or washing treatments to a sample merely to discover what happens when a suitable method has not been established.
Keep the instructions with the product record
Save the guidance supplied and any unresolved questions beside the reference. Ask about handling and storage requirements where relevant, without inferring them from a warehouse photo. If a later order uses another variant, lining or decoration, review whether the previous instructions still apply to that combination.
