ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for treating garments, particularly to impart a "stone-washed" look without using pumice stones, using an elongated drum having an inclined axis and two continuous helical flights placed within the drum. Garments subjected to treatment in the drum with liquids and chemicals normally used in stone-washing operations, but without pumice stones, will have an appearance and feel like that of a normally-formed stone-washed garment. The helical flights may also have projection fins to help the abrading operation. The method is much more economical in terms of both supplies, equipment, and labor than the conventional stone-wash technique.
