    I do the exact same thing but I'd recommend you add some arm and hammer baking soda while scrubbing with the dawn, the baking soda removes stains, kills odor like crazy.. trust me.

    if the hat is made of wool, you shouldn't wash it with hot water, it will shrink. check the label before you wash it. i use Kiwi Suede and Nubuck cleaner on my wool caps.

    Great tutorial. I ordered a structured ball cap that came in the mail, padded envelope and the thing was absolutely flattened.
    Can you use spray starch or magic sizing instead of hair spray? Because no one in my house uses it and I'm not buying a can just to fix my hat.

    Question: Why not wash caps in a laundry machine? I ask because I have a large quantity of hats to restore, but would like to clean more than 1 at a time. Doing one at a time seems time consuming. Is there a reason why you don't?

    • @vintageandsnap4756
      @vintageandsnap4756 6 лет назад

      Hey man. If you wash you hats in a machine, you risk messing them up! the washing machine throws them around and may result in messed up brims, or bleeding. I posted a video with another method of reshaping hats, give it a watch!

    try spraying the yellowed out sweat band with 50% water and 50% hydrogen peroxide. then put it out in the sun. if its not perfect white after that repeat the process daily. eventually it will be just as white as b brand new hat! Also spray starch works well for the forming. thanks for the tips! never thought of the rice cooker idea.
