    Good advice from each of you. What I did was start from an inch or two away from the garments, rather than make direct contact at first, to gauge just how intense the steam would be. Then I made some quick, light passes, two or three at a time, with the grooming brushes coming lightly in contact with the fabric. I wasn't about to bear down and scrub. I kept the steam source moving, and the contact light. The wrinkles smoothed themselves out with no effort.

    I have a heavy duty floormodel steamer with ajustable pressure and multiple nozzles from single to wide enough to clean windows with. Works wonders, money very well spent. I use it to clean tiles outside, blankets, even leather couches. Gets stains out of clothing like jeans without effort. Yes I use it for clothing and other fabrics as well. Most important note is, do not get (subject) too wet or it won't work anymore and dry up ugly.

    Might try and see if it will get the wrongly pressed last pleat realigned..
