Put it in the freezer overnight. It should peel right off.

Take ice and freeze it, then crack hardened wax off in pieces!

How do you clean baseball caps? The problem is sweat and dirt stains. The cap is wool. Standard baseball cap construction.

RE: Cleaning Baseball Caps

I used to have a form for washing baseball caps in the washing machine. I suppose you could use that on the gentle cool cycle, but don't use a dryer to dry it or it will shrink, air dry. (And put some vinegar on the sweat stains first to treat them.) My husband just gets his wet, so you could hand wash it with Woolite or some similar soap and dry on a ball of newspaper or other form.

Put the cap in the top shelf of your dishwasher! If the stains are bad on the rim rub first with a spot cleaner. (10/06/2006)
