    OPEN ROAD COLORS ????

    If I could do a tear drop that well, I'd never do any other bash either! They look great. :eusa_clap rrog

    Rust Removal

    Here's an update on my rust problem... I've looked for Whink and RoVer rust remover at Kroger, Food City, Walmart, Lowe's, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, a local hardware store, Walgreens and CVS and could not find any at all. So I then tried a Tide Stain Stick, which did absolutely no good...

    Rust Removal

    Thanks for the replies. I haven't had a chance to try any of the remedies yet but I'll post the results when I do. I'll probably start with the Whink brand first. Sounds the least risky... rrog

    Rust Removal

    I tried searching but I'm not having luck. So if this question has already been answered, please just point me in the right direction. I want to know how to clean rust off a Stetson fur felt hat. I was shaping the back of the brim and placed a notebook on the rear of the brim to keep it flat...

    Stiff hat or soft hat?

    I prefer my hats stiffer rather than softer. I have a newly-acquired Stetson cowboy hat that I love wearing. Only trouble with it is that the brim is too wide to wear comfortably in the car. It keeps hitting the head rest. So when I'm in the car, as opposed to my truck, I wear my Akubra and...

    Nice looking hat, laotou. That one was my first one too. And if you're like me, that won't be your last Sunbody. They're very comfortable. rrog

    THE SUNBODY ASSOCIATION

    Hey laotou, welcome to the lounge. I have both a standard and fine Guatemalan hat. Even though they're very similar, you can tell a difference. My guess is that as you wear the hat, most people wouldn't notice any difference. I just ordered another fine. I asked my wife's opinion between...

    THE SUNBODY ASSOCIATION

    Nice hat Duper. I think that's a good looking hat band you've got on that one. If I recall correctly, one of my Sunbody Hats did come with a plain, brown leather band. But I'd have to dig it out to make sure. And about the eyelets, there's some discussion earlier in this thread about doing...

    Hat color selection

    Hello and welcome to the lounge. I tend to wear greys and browns. So I get a lot of mileage out of my Fed IV moonstone and dark brown hats, as well as my two Stetson silver belly hats. But as to which one I wear the most, it's the moonstone, far and away. It seems to go with most anything...

    Indiana Jones: Bane of Vintage Enthusiasts

    Well, Lefty, I fail to see where you're telling anybody what or what not to write. I see this as a dead-on statement about the Indy issue as it has played out time and again here on TFL. I'm just not sure where the sensitivity might be coming from, as I don't sense any malice or ill will in...

    Akubra Overload

    I recently put a tear drop in my Stetson OR, but I'm tempted to do a center dent as well. That's what I've got in my Fed IV's and I'm just partial to that style. rrog

    New Member Checking In (with new hat)

    EHH (enabling the hat habit), that sounds like a medical condition. And it's contagious. And welcome to you, JA. You're off to a good start. rrog

    The Open Road Guild

    Thanks for the kind remarks. It's taking a little getting used to, since the brim is a little bigger than the Fed IV I usually wear. But I'm suffering through just fine. rrog
