In Reply to: Fedora getting a bit fuzzy looking? Pounce it. posted by Fedora on November 20, 2000 at 00:06:23:

: Just thought I would pass this on to you fedora wearers. I just finished pouncing one of my fedoras and it looks new after the process. The felt had become real fuzzy looking from repeated cleaning, using compressed air to get the saw dust off. I remembered that hats are sanded in the finishing process, and decided to try it. It worked beautifully. I used 400 grit sand paper, and I would suggest not to use anything courser. I put the finishing touches on it with this special paper I used in fabricating Corian counter tops. It is a micro grit paper and works really well. The felt looks like new. Regards, Fedora
