Just a word of caution..... If you use plastic bags to stuff material to shape, turn them inside out before you use them. The printing on some bags react with cleaner residue (and sometimes even just to prolonged moisture exposure) and will transfer the printing from the bag to your item. A lesson I learned the hard way!

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

OH WOW! How in the world have I never thought of that? I have literally cleaned HUNDREDS of hats and that never occurred to me. Such an obvious side effect and I totally whiffed on it. Thank you for the tip!

@vickilarimore2048 9 месяцев назад

Wow! What a great tip! I'm amazed that you were able to get that white hat so clean! Amazing, thank you Scot!

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much!

@josephhannemann3922 9 месяцев назад

Great tip about Taiwan ROC. Will help identifying vintage. Ive seen that a few times but didn't know. Thanks.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

It was helpful to me when I learned it as well. After 97 everything has to be labeled China. I suppose it's possible that some company could have tried to get away with it, but the rule is pretty standard across all of the products from the PRC.

@patyeaman 9 месяцев назад

There are a lot of reasons NOT to sell glassware but the memory of this video will make me so happy when I am cleaning MY pre-sale breakables! Thanks for all the informative content you put out there.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Lol... glad to be of service.

@hepcat5199 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for showing how to clean a white hat. Good to know if I ever find one worth that much time and effort. My general rule is to not pick up dirty hats.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Unless it's a truly valuable hat, it's probably not worth it. I enjoy the process.

@ErikaVN10 9 месяцев назад

Wow, thanks for sharing your tips to clean a hat. I usually skip hats that look like that 😅😅

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

This hat is only worth $30-40. So, not a big money maker. But some hats are genuinely worth a lot of money. They are one of my favorite things to sell.

@annebeck2208 5 месяцев назад

It is always amazing how those old things were made to last! So many things can be bleached and look almost new...not everything...but lots!

@TheChaChingKing 5 месяцев назад

So true!

@thomasfrench2012 9 месяцев назад

Very impressive Scot. Not sure how much that cap goes for, but it would have to be a pretty expensive cap for me to invest the time and resources to clean it up. Still, I am sure this will come in handy to lots of people.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Oh, it's probably not worth it from a financial point of view for this cap. I listed it for $40, and it should get close to that. But I enjoy cleaning them and some caps are worth a lot more.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Taiwan has a really interesting history. Thank you for watching!

@azcatz-sue 9 месяцев назад

Never thought of using bags to stuff a hat like that. Very informative as usual Scot!

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! The bags are flexible and still allow some ventilation. And...EVERYBODY has them. Someone in the comments made a good point. If there's any ink on the bags, turn them inside out first to prevent any possibility of transfer. I can't believe I never thought of that.

@lissa4306 9 месяцев назад

i'm guessing using Dawn is to remove body oils, however Dawn is expensive! I use Suave Clarifying Shampoo - works just as good if not better. I also use Suave Clarifying Shampoo to clean the shower pan & grease stains on other clothing.

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

I think Suave would work very well. I love Dawn and use SO little of it that the difference in cost ends up being negligible. But I would think the Suave would work great.

@tammygerzetich3386 9 месяцев назад

That hat cleaned up very nice. I have a few I have tossed to the side bc of stains but may try this method and see what happens. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 😊

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

It's not always worth it. But I enjoy the process and that's a big part of the reason I clean some of the hats up that might otherwise be tossed.

@865Picker 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how you cleaned it. I use that Clorox bleach spray for everything. It is hard to get the residue off your fingers. It takes forever. It works great. I would’ve never thought you could use it In that instance. I would’ve been afraid that the red would have run but you taught me something new with that type not running.

@TheChaChingKing 8 месяцев назад

I have used Clorox a bunch. The key for me had always been to limit the exposure time, rinse, and repeat as needed. So far, I've never had a fabric fail doing it that way. It's really effective.

@treasuresnownthen 9 месяцев назад

Wouldnt you be worried about the bleach ruining the colored bits? GREAT job!

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

I don't worry if it's painted. If it's dyed, it would most likely ruin it.

@g.m.5412 9 месяцев назад

Oh wow, how can you tell between dyed or painted?@@TheChaChingKing

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Usually, the paint is very obvious. It will be thicker and you can feel it on the surface of the fabric. That said, there's no guarantees. It's always best to test a portion to see if the cleaning will harm it in any way.@@g.m.5412

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

@SevenSparrowsFarm 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for making the video! I have a black snapback hat that is in really good condition. It has a faint smell of mold that I've been trying to eliminate. I've tried mild laundry detergent, a Lysol spray, and airing it out, and it is about 95% better. Should I try Dawn, too?

@TheChaChingKing 6 месяцев назад

Dawn is like magic. But, believe it or not, I've had great luck with vodka. Don't drink until you can't smell. Spray it on the hat. Try a spot that won't show first to make sure it doesn't do anything negative. The alcohol in vodka will encapsulate musty smells and chemically get rid of them. Alcohol is the reason Febreeze works. Vodka will also remove ink. So, be aware of that around printed tags. It could remove everything.

@LezahTX 9 месяцев назад

Your YT following has grown so much since I first spoke with you at Waco Dr outlet, haha! 👏Glad to see it! How are your other socials fairing?

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Thank you very much. I use Instagram, but don't do reels. So, I'm right at 14k on there. But, it isn't growing very quickly. Honestly, the numbers end up just being vanity numbers for me. I haven't done much to monetize the following. My goals for RU-vid really haven't changed. I want to help people and encourage them. I figure that if I'm successful at that, I'm successful enough. I'm still blown away that anyone tunes in at all.

@annebeck2208 5 месяцев назад

Folex! Most Lowes or Homedepots have Folex...it will take things off of fabric like you can't believe....it is for carpets, but totally safe for any fabric...I have even used it to take ink pin off leather!!!! Does not hurt any fabric that I have tried....but test first!

@TheChaChingKing 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching and for the comments. I am completely unfamiliar with Folex. I will have to give it a try! Thanks again!

@PiNkSpRinkLe1 9 месяцев назад

Is that bathroom cleaner you are using?

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

Just Clorox Clean-Up. It's not quite as strong as a bathroom cleaner or straight bleach.

@user-hs9zu8tb6v 5 месяцев назад

At what point is the time and effort involved make it not worth it? Do you have a minimum price for an item before you are willing to go to all effort of cleaning it?

@TheChaChingKing 5 месяцев назад

This hat wasn't worth it. Honestly, if things need a whole lot of time and trouble (like this one), they need to be worth a hundred bucks. BUT...for me...I also enjoy the renovation. I love seeing the change. I love saving things. So, it isn't just the money for me. but if it isn't a labor of love, you are totally right to ask whether or not it's worth it. If it just comes down to money, if you have to think long and hard first, it's not worth it.

@sactownpicker253 4 месяца назад

Wow! Thanks for the info. Just out of curiosity….do you wash all used hats and clothing before listing an item for sale?!?!

@TheChaChingKing 4 месяца назад

No, not everything. But we do if it needs it.

@almostpronto2286 9 месяцев назад

1) Show Off 🤭 2) 😂 “big mistake to use Melody’s new towels for this process.”

@TheChaChingKing 9 месяцев назад

I had to pinch myself with how this one was turning out. And then I had to ask myself, "Would I still edit and release this video if it didn't do as well?" LOL No towels were sacrificed in the production of this video.

@outforatreat 8 месяцев назад

Good job it was really dirty.

@TheChaChingKing 8 месяцев назад

It turned out nice considering how it looked at the start. :-)

@JuanBrolo Месяц назад

Doesn't this ruin the form of the hat? Everytime I have ever tried to wash my hats they lose their form and never look right after

@TheChaChingKing Месяц назад

It certainly can. I use old plastic grocery bags and make sure I get the shape of the hat exactly like I want it while it's drying. That take a bit of practice, but it makes a huge difference if it dries in the right shape.
