I don't have any fabric-specific soaps other than laundry detergent. Would hand soap (such as Dial or Irish Spring) work?
Should the entire liner be submerged in water?
And would rubbing diluted vinegar on the spots with a cotton ball be a bad idea?
I have a Borsalino that I bought at a local flea market. The lining on the inside has black mold/mildew in it. What's the best way to get it out?
Here's a picture:
Do you know a good place (on or off this forum) where I could find detailed instructions (perhaps even tutorials) on how to properly clean a silk liner, as well as how to safely steam and clean the hat?
I didn't know that. That's very interesting.
I bought this Borsalino at a local flea market. The inside lining has a bit of black mold on it, but I was told that it could be gotten out with carpet-cleaning solution (if anyone knows of a better solution, please let me know). One thing to take note of is that shortly after I took these...
Interesting. I had thought that black suits were quite common in America back then. They seemed very common in photographs and in the movies of that era. Maybe I was mistaking gray or dark blue suits for black ones.
Based on the photo, which decade do you consider its design to most resemble the style of? Also, would you say that the brim would be considered stingy?
I see. I'll try newspaper or something similar first, then move on to compressible foam if that isn't satisfactory.
Ah, that's good.
Thank you for the clarification.
Thank you. I asked because I found a promising hat online, but it is a 7 1/4, which is one size too big for me. I wanted to know whether it would still be advisable to order it.
I'll try that first before attempting other options, then.
In your hair?
Are either type of sizers/sizing strips comfortable enough that buying a hat that is only available in a size hat is one size too big would be advisable?
