Zusammenfassung:Fabrics having a laundry-durable finish made by graft polymerisation of a polymerisable monomer and methods of manufacture thereof which comprise exposing the fabric or a region thereof to a polymerisable monomer and exciting the polymerisable monomer within a monomer excitation zone such as a plasma. The methods of the invention provide oleophobic and hydrophobic stain-resistant fabrics having improved laundry-durability without adversely affecting other textile properties such as textile handle, drape and breathability.
