Delaware State Flag 4×6 Ft – Double Sided Reverse Print On Back 200D Nylon – Brass Grommets Stitched Edges Fade Proof Sharp Vivid Colors – State of Delaware Flag Banner

A 4x6 foot flag (48 by 72 inches) is quite large and makes a spectacular, dominating display. If you are flying it on a freestanding in-ground flagpole, 4x6 is generally the ideal, proportionate size for poles that are 20 to 25 feet tall. However, if you intend to fly this on a standard 5-foot or 6-foot angled pole mounted to your front porch, a 4x6 flag is usually too large—it may drape to the ground or easily snag on gutters and porch railings when the wind blows. For standard porch mounts, we highly recommend purchasing a 3x5 foot flag instead. 4x6 flags are best suited for commercial displays, tall residential in-ground poles, or large indoor wall hangings.

When you unbox your 200D nylon flag, it will have distinct crease lines from being folded in transit. The safest and easiest way to remove these is with a handheld garment steamer. The gentle steam relaxes the nylon fibers and drops the wrinkles right out. Alternatively, you can use a standard clothing iron, but you must be careful: set it to the lowest heat setting (usually marked "Nylon" or "Synthetics") and iron the flag quickly. Never leave a hot iron resting on the nylon fabric, as it will melt the synthetic fibers instantly.

Flag lifespan depends entirely on exposure. A flag flown 24/7 in harsh weather, direct intense sunlight, and high winds will naturally wear out faster than one flown occasionally or taken down during storms. On average, an outdoor 200D Nylon flag flown daily will last 6 to 9 months before showing noticeable fraying or fading. By bringing the flag indoors during severe weather (winds over 35 mph) and occasionally washing it to remove airborne abrasive particles, many customers stretch the lifespan of their PromoPatriot flag well past a year.

We do not recommend machine washing. The heavy agitation of a washing machine can damage the solid brass grommets, misshape the canvas header, and accelerate wear on the stitched edges. If your flag becomes dirty from outdoor smog or pollen, simply hand wash it in a large sink or tub using cool water and a mild, bleach-free detergent. Rinse it thoroughly and hang it up to air dry completely. Never put a nylon flag in a tumble dryer.

You can return the flag within 30 days in original, unused condition for a full refund—a prepaid return label will be provided. If the flag suffers from a manufacturing defect (such as an improperly set grommet, misprinted colors, or unraveled stitching out of the box), we will replace it free of charge within 30 days. Please note that normal outdoor wear and tear—such as edge fraying from high winds or color fading over several months of UV exposure—is the expected lifecycle of an outdoor flag and is not covered as a manufacturing defect.
