I have used duct tape myself [in the past]:eusa_doh: , but since partaking here at the lounge I have been told that useing duct tape on fur felt is a no no.
Fellow Loungers please chime in.

Leaves behind residue and can tear off too much felt for my liking.

Lint rollars are a better bet if you want to go a sticky route. A good hat brush and sponge are the best bet. Check out the felt hat basics thread.

While you're in the barn, take the opportunity to consult with Bossy or Dobbin on a new bash. (Just make sure their hooves are clean.)

I hear ya.

BTW, it was my $10 New York Hat Co. wool, that I tried it on 1st.

Perhaps masking tape would be a better route.
