Red Dye in Polyester Coat Lining Bleeding?

I've just bought a red wool and cashmere coat, with a patterned, red polyester lining. I didn't notice the disclaimer label, when I bought it, stating you should not get it moist or damp, avoid contact with light fabrics, upholstery, or accessories. What can I do to prevent it bleeding? I really like the coat.

To be honest, if it were me I'd replace the lining for something more sensible. This is something you can do if you sew, or you can hire it out - usually the dry cleaner will have a tailor/seamstress on staff.

It may cost you a bit but a wool and cashmere coat is an investment so the cost of replacing the lining is well worth it!

If you really like the coat and think its worth it, why not change the lining to a fabric which wont bleed? I know some dry cleaners in the u.k.

would do the alteration for you for a fee. if you know how to sew yourself, then just unpick the lining and use it as a pattern.

I would ask a dry cleaner. Perhaps having it dry cleaned could help.
