Definitely time to wear a mask. 😷 looking better but I'd like to see it steamed. Thanks brother Kevin. 🎶🎸🎶👍

Dude you left that hat looking brand new makes me feel better about wearing my hat more and not getting it dirty or damaged Great video

Wow! I’m no longer going to worry about my Rodeo King getting dirty. Whatever happens happens. I do plan to avoid drenching rain. You did such a great job on that hat. I couldn’t tell if it still has the satin lining intact and also, what would it cost to replace the band now that it looks so nice? Great job bud. I’m totally fascinated by anyone restoring anything from old cars to Nintendo controllers and systems. 👍☮️🌞🌟🤠💕

Sorry for your loss, sounds like a cool project, just get the flexible sanding sponge from 3m, and a brush..

Hey Kevin, for summer. The gambler? Or royal flush straw? I mean I know the straw is lighter but both being white hats do you think the felt version would look silly with a Hawaiian shirt in the heat? I plan on getting both of them. Which would you get first your opinion

@quadrogong1111 2 года назад

No felt on summer, you'll wanna take it off after a minute. Go w the straw version for june-sept

@magpie06 2 года назад

That was fantastic! What an amazing difference. My husband has an Eddy Bros that was in a cattleman style...he prefers the Gus style. I had not much trouble reshaping it over my teakettle; the crown stays put, but the brim tends to slightly curl back up and lose the front & back dips. It is Durofelt. Any hints how to make it stay?

@paull3466 2 года назад

Great video, once again, Kevin. Feel like I've learnt so much from watching your channel over the years. Do you have any opinion on the Pure Stratoliner? I have a regular Stratoliner (in Sage) and an Akubra Stylemaster; the Stylemaster is my 'everyday' hat (going to work, etc) because it feels more 'substantial' and hardy owing to the felt, but if pushed I prefer the cut and the feel of the Stratoliner, so that's my 'luxury' hat. I've been eyeing up a Pure Stratoliner lately (either in Blue or Tobacco). Would that hit the sweet spot between my love of the regular Stratoliner and the hardiness of the Stylemaster, do you think?

@quadrogong1111 2 года назад

There’s no comparison in heartiness. Akubra crushes it, get it because u want a nice stratoliner, but don’t expect it to be hearty or do well in the rain like an Akubra, I’m not a fan of Stetson open roads myself,if you’re looking for hearty, go Akubra.. if u want something that has the open road look, get an open road, but that felt isn’t really rugged or strong..

@paull3466 2 года назад

@@quadrogong1111 Thanks, Kevin. Much appreciated! 👍

@kirkmanning6232 6 месяцев назад

I bought my Stetson 6X Rancher about 48 years ago. I recently cleaned it by brushing it, then soaked it with the kitchen tap and let it dry… any remaining spots were sanded. Looks brand new. A good hat will take the rain without any worries.

What grit of sand paper do you use for felt hats?

@quadrogong1111 2 года назад

not sure, I use many different ones, anything is okay, nothing coarser than let’s say and Emery board, but fine is ok, not extra fine

@dpeatebc7265 2 года назад

LOL. Looks like Teddy Roosevelt's hat! Good thing you were wearing a mask!

@magpie06 2 года назад

Another question: How easy (or difficult) is it to remove sweat and/or sweatband stains from straw hats? The stains in these old hats have probably been there for some time, and I think probably the leather hat bands' color added to the stain. Thanks!

@quadrogong1111 2 года назад

It’s impossible. There might be folks that clean them w chemicals, but I don’t know of anyone like that

I think I use 120 and also 180…I use a 3m flexible sanding sponge, the double sided red ones, I think they’re 120 grit, Im not sure offhand, I’m at home now, something a little finer than an Emory board is good..

@InventiveReality 2 года назад

Does all this sanding damage the structural integrity of the hat much?

@quadrogong1111 2 года назад

Not if done properly, and carefully.. if u do this 10-15x it will start going too deep and it’ll get worn in that area.. but doing it once a year, twice a year is fine.. don’t overdo it,

That’s not cleaning lol that’s tearing the stains off using sand paper and then brushing the felt dust away

@quadrogong1111 Год назад

Basically removing the top layer of felt, buff it out and the finish with a brush, it’s pretty effective unless the stains go deep
