I have an Akubra Cattleman, and I love it. Yay! I somehow got grease on my coat the other day, and then on my hat (when I tucked it under my arm while inside a store). Boo!
The same grease came off my Columbia (nylon?) jacket after I tried Woolite (useless), OxyClean (more useless-er), and Zout (possibly the answer), followed by a machine washing in cold water.
How can I get these spots off my hat? I saw a recent thread on naphtha, but do I honestly go buy a quart of the stuff at Lowe's and soak my hat in it, or dab it on and wipe it off, or...? I tried searching the site but came up empty.
I am not a neat freak and am happy to have a lived-in looking hat, but these spots are obvious and ugly. :7( Thank you for any suggestions.
