Why does the clothing have a white shine after steamed with the Xiaomi Standing Garment Steamer?

The Xiaomi Standing Garment Steamer operates at a high steam temperature of up to 130°C. Before steaming, it is crucial to check the care label on your clothing to ensure that the fabric can withstand the high heat. If the fabric is not suitable for such high temperatures, issues such as damage, shrinkage, or a white shine (aurora effect) can occur.
Note:
When steaming is not done correctly or when the fabric does not meet the steaming requirements, the fiber structure of the clothing can change. This alteration can result in a reflection of light off the fibers, creating a white or shiny appearance. Always verify the fabric's compatibility with high-temperature steaming and follow proper steaming techniques to avoid these effects.
