Just used this today to clean my favorite hat! Great vid and technique, I set mine up on a container in the laundry room, with a box fan next to it- that was only like 2 hrs ago and it’s already almost dry, and looks brand new!
Super helpful, i work in construction so my hat tends to get a bit sweaty lol never care about it actually being clean but its starting to get a little smelly so time to clean😂
Great video! Followed your instructions and my hat looks like new again. Thanks! I also implemented another useful option when drying my hat. I used a common balloon to block the hat. Just gently blow-up the balloon inside the hat until it is snug (but don't over do it) and tie it up and let the hat dry. The hat will keep its shape perfectly.
Did This with my white stetson cap, Im a crane trucker from norway, wich means i have to work with rusty chains and grease everyday, my cap was almost red but now its not Perfect but it managed to clean it so it looks almost new again, thanks for the help
thanks man! I bought a hat from my honeymoon as a souvenire and of course it`s become my go to hat but it has a leather patch on it so I`ve been scared to clean it and haven`t been able to wear it for awhile now but now I can!
I have to respectfully disagree; Laundry detergent is not more powerful than laundry detergent. In my experience Laundry detergent has always worked better for me than laundry detergent.
@@tommy2scoops137 I would have to heavily disagree on that. Been using laundry detergent for five years now and has shown way better results than laundry detergent.
Word of the wise. Do not use detergents with anything like bleach or that black cap will quickly become brown. Also try and buy polyester caps, cotton fades with sweat and direct sun exposure. So does poly cotton over time. Great video, I just thought I would add my personal experience with bleach based detergents.
Something like Vanish (pink bottle over here) is good, do read the instructions. But as I commented on the main wall, dish soap rubbed into the stain, leave it a minimum of an hour, wash in machine with similar colours like normal, 30c or less.
Part of my work uniform is this style of hat and I don't know how to clean the mesh part on the back, it was white but now it's more of a beige color and some parts are black lol
Liked and subscribed! Thanks for the video. At 1:56, your graphic shows “laundry detergent is more powerful than laundry detergent”, but I heard you SAY the right thing!
Can i just spray on a stain remover and soak it afterwards? I'm in college and cannot really leave anything in the sink or use the sink for cleaning hats so I'd like to use the alternative method but instead just spraying oxi clean on the hat, scrubbing it with a toothbrush, and rinsing it throughly. Would this method work as well?
I’m a little hesitant only because i don’t want to mess any of my hats up. They’re pretty clean over all except the sweat stains that start to show up on gray under brims. Honestly want to get some of the odor out as well. Will this be effective in saving the color of the hats?
Way I wash my caps - 1. Bit of Fairy (dish soap) neat on the inside & front of hat over stains. 2. Leave for at least an hour. 3. Put in washing machine with your normal load (30c) and done. Never had any issues & hats like new ✌️
Stain remover wont even fix mine. I've tried that and machine washing. It's useless. The stains are just the same colour as the hat just darker but no matter what they won't clean out. I don't get it.
im nasty. i take my caps into the shower with me and throw a lil shampoo on them and let it dry and use next day lol i sweat everyday, allot. i just need hats that dont loose their shape due to humidity sweat and etc.

This is exactly what I was looking for thank you!
Straight to the point.

My hats are super sweat stained 😅 looks about 80% better so far. Perhaps I'll do it again one they dry.
awesome!
how did you dry it ?
90% is all i get out of my hats Brown sweat stains are extremely hard to impossible to get out of Sky Blue clothing.
Thank you
Just used this today, super helpful thanks bro!
Not bad it worked. Thank you.
glad it helped
Thanks for the tips.
glad they helped!
1:13 when he gets to the point
Very helpful!!! Thank you so much!!!
I assume the same method can be used for the back white mesh part of the hat?
Yes, I do it too
Safe and sound
What’s a good stain remover?
Something like Vanish (pink bottle over here) is good, do read the instructions. But as I commented on the main wall, dish soap rubbed into the stain, leave it a minimum of an hour, wash in machine with similar colours like normal, 30c or less.
A life saver, thanks!
glad it helped!
Im giving it a like right at the beginning bcuz your awesome!
thanks!
He’s underrated
You ever used isopropyl alcohol before the shout?
thanks!

That is very useful!
Gracias i have several hats and i need to get rid of those pesky salt satin i think there called good video keep it comming
Gracias Mario
Does this work for Goorin hats too ?
Do you have any advice for washing one of these hats if it has foam padding on the inside?
Thanks bro
anytime!
Great tips!
Thank you!
Liked and subscribed! Thanks for the video. At 1:56, your graphic shows “laundry detergent is more powerful than laundry detergent”, but I heard you SAY the right thing!
Sorry about that! Thanks for the heads up
thank you, it’s really helpful 👍
I heard the opposite, soak in warm water, and wash soap with cold water? Is there a difference?
Perfect, thanks!👍🏼
Hope it helps, John!
I have the same type of hat but my situation is the white part, it turned yellow. Does this apply the same?
What if i dont have liquid detergent? Can i use dishwashing liquid?
yes. Detergent is better against grease
laundry detergent is more powerful than laundry detergent?
hi pal...any substitute for a stain remover?
maybe put extra soap?
@@StrongOver40 are u tryna be funny
@@MjoePta What's your hesitation with stain remover?
@@StrongOver40 oh neh just that i dont have it and i dont wana buy it for just 1 cap

I never tried that. Maybe start easy with oxi clean?
So just spray the oxi clean on and then rinse?
I know it’s late but you can always by a bucket from the dollar tree or 99 cent store and just pull it out when your going to use it.
Does the water damage the Visor ? What if it destroys the rigidity of the visor?
Yo thanks man I had to wash my Burger King visor for work and this helped 👍
glad it helped!
Does this fade the colour if you always do it?
Depending on the material and quality of the print. Take it easy
@@StrongOver40 mines not printed it’s embroidered, that’s great thanks!
Great video man, saved me from ruining my mates hat
thanks Michael! Glad you found it useful

What are the downsides of letting the hat dry in the sun? Thank you for the video good sir
thank you! In my experience, it damages the fabric, damages the shape, it can affect the color of the hat. That's why I prefer indirect light
I have my caps near the radiator, in the summer near open windows. In direct sunlight can easily fade the colour.
Just got my Game G SnapBack. Gotta get it clean 🧽 thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH! MAY GOD BLESS YOU
U look exactly like my baseball coach and his hats would change color tones from his sweats stains 😂😂
lol
Dang right! Thanks brother, I have a few hats that I love that need to be cleaned, but I was scared to wash them!
hope it helps
Sweat stains give the hat character
Way I wash my caps -
1. Bit of Fairy (dish soap) neat on the inside & front of hat over stains.
2. Leave for at least an hour.
3. Put in washing machine with your normal load (30c) and done.
Never had any issues & hats like new ✌️
All my hats say not to put them in the washing machine
My hat is clean now except for the water stains on the bill.of the hat that werent there before I washed it. 😢
I came to learn how to clean my hat, but I don’t run, so I guess I’ll have to try another video
sweat is sweat
1:55 Moral of the story
I meant dish detergent
The back part of my hat (the “trucker” material) is suppose to be white but is super brown and nasty. Will this work for that as well?
It should
I just use good ol’ soap and water, works every time
Shut up

bummer. I sounds like those stains are almost impossible to get rid of
thank youuuuuu
glad it helped!
Ray Oriel showing us how to clean hats. Oh shit!
Helpful video, thank you!
Does it have to be clear detergent?
Nope! The one I usually use is colored
I don't do to much running but most of my hats gett dirty from work
Use shampoo instead of dish detergent!! Shampoo will remove the oils in the sweat better than detergents!
I’m going to try this on my work hat when it gets sweat stained up in 2 or 3 weeks!
give it a try, let me know what you think!
Dishwasher is easier and does a perfect job
im nasty. i take my caps into the shower with me and throw a lil shampoo on them and let it dry and use next day lol i sweat everyday, allot. i just need hats that dont loose their shape due to humidity sweat and etc.
haha nice job
OR-------------just put it in the wash machine on warm/gentle
if you like a crappy hat, yes...do that
Thaaaaaaaaaaankkkkkk!!!!!!
anytime!

ha, we all make mistakes right?

Is that a thunderbird on your hat?
condor
Yeah we didn't need the weird I'm an enthusiastic american intro
I's here cause I kept smelling stank then realized it was my hat.
Great tips. Too bad I'm a lazy sloth. #Chaskiup
hahaha only takes 5 minutes 😂😂😂
This cleaning process doesn’t get rid of sweat smell.
if you soak your hat it does
@@StrongOver40 I’ve tried it and it didn’t work. I had to soak it in water and vinegar first.
Why get rid of the sweat stains when you can just sweat stain it all
do you mean to leave all the stains on the hat?
