No residue left in fur felt hats when steaming is applied for a long time - My Stetson Temple was all fluffy and uncomfortable; I had to keep fixing the brim at all times. I was tired of the flying fluffy brim. I applied the Khal stiffener a couple of times, using a teapot to steam after the sittener dried for a couple of hours. After the teapot steaming, I could feel some residue in the fur felt. I reasoned that the starch did not have enough time to diffuse inside the felt. I tried then another approach to steaming. You can see my approach in the picture. I used a humidifier, with a trash basket on top, and the hat on top of the basket. I left the hat there for several hours, removing the condensed water with a towel from time to time. After the process, presumably all of the Khal Stiffener was absorbed by the felt. I could not feel any residue anymore. I brushed the hat when dry, and the texture was not affected. The brim took a nice shape, just a little bit stiffer. The effect of the product is not dramatic. The felt acquired a nice malleable body. I decided to give the brim a snapped up shape everywhere but at the front of the hat. The brim shape has prevailed after a couple of wears. This Khal Stiffener product solved my problem. I did not have to do a professional hat restoration. I must admit that part of the success was the slow steaming process. I applied the same humidifier steaming, over several hours on another Stetson Temple, without using the Khal Stiffener product. That second hat looks again like new. Overall, I am happy with the outcome. The brim now has a steady shape (I cannot play with brim positions anymore, but I prefer such). If you use this product, make sure you give enough steaming time for the starch to diffuse into the fabric. I am guessing that people complaining about white spots is due to starch buildup after several applications. Again, starch buildup does not occur when steam acts on the hat for a long time. Hats need some steaming from time to time to help them keep shape, just like shirts need ironing. Review: Excellent - Very good product, even though is not so cheap but if you are dealing with expensive stuff, having a expensive spray gives more confidence, its easy to use and is very good for hats, either reshaping them or just stiffening , in my case felt hats. ## Features - Preserve Hat Shape: Reliable Hat Stiffener helps maintain the original structure and form of felt and fabric hats, keeping them supported, well-shaped, and looking their best through regular wear. - Adjustable Stiffening Performance: This Felt Hat Stiffener can be applied according to need, allowing you to customize the level of stiffness and achieve the desired brim and crown support. - Safe for All Colors: Our Felt Stiffener formula will not yellow, flake, or alter the tone, texture, or appearance of your hat, helping preserve its natural appearance. - Ideal for Felt & Fabric Hats: Versatile Fabric Stiffener spray adds structure and long-lasting support to felt hats, fabric hat brims, and similar materials. One application helps maintain brim support and shape retention through regular wear; reapply as needed for desired firmness. - Application Instructions: Hold the bottle 8-10 inches from the surface and apply a light, even coat of Fabric Stiffener. Allow the material to dry completely before adding additional layers to achieve the desired level of stiffness. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003YD92JU | | Additional Features | Gentle on Material, Color Preservation, Made in USA | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Apparel Closure Type | Spray | | Apparel Fabric Stretch | No Stretch | | Apparel Fabric Weight Class | Medium Weight | | Brand Name | Bickmore | | Care instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Closure type | Spray | | Color | Clear | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 2,904 Reviews | | Fabric Type | Felt | | Fabric type | Felt | | Fit Type | straight | | Fit to Size Sentiment | Positive | | Fit type | Straight | | Hat Form Type | Fedora | | Is Waterproof | false | | Item Dimensions | 7.5 x 2 x 2 inches | | Manufacturer | Bickmore | | Manufacturer Part Number | 10FPR131 | | Material Type | Felt | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion Type | Work | | Pattern | Solid | | Pattern Style | Solid | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | outdoor | | Seasons | All | | Sport Type | Paintball | | Style Name | Top | | Style Number | 10FPR131 | | Team Name | Mit | | Theme | Horse | | UPC | 751241000624 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | character | Sports | ## Images ![Kahl Hat Stiffener Spray for Felt & Fabric Hats Clear | Restores Shape, Supports Brim, Clear, Won't Affect Color or Texture, Made in USA - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81AnSHKEjhL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this stiffener go soft in rain or wet weather?** A: It is a starch based product, so it will eventually get soft. When that happens I re-apply, then set the hat in a 350 degree oven for 90 seconds. Nice and stiff after that! **Q: Concensus on how necessary this is, "If you do not steam this product ... Steaming is a priority."?** A: Steaming gives best results but most at home users do not, and they have good results as well. The steam pulls the product into the felt deeper **Q: Will this work on the brim of a baseball cap? I I want it curled more, but the material is so thick. Thanks** A: I use a heat gun to get the curve I like on ball caps. Be careful not to scorch material. Its best to have it setup in a frame of wood with the arch you like then apply heat in all areas of the bill and let it cool and do it again. The second time I usually wet it to make sure it stays. Most hats have plastic in there. So quick cool with water works well on second time. **Q: Would this product work on a suede floppy hat that is too floppy on one side?** A: Yes. Google how to apply this type of product with an iron & steam heat. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works.
