I was trying to get a pretty big sweat stain out with baby powder. I accidentally used a very slightly damp cloth, and now the baby powder is caked in. Tried soap and water, tried sandpaper. Nothing works. Is there anything I can do? Any dyes, try rubbing alcohol, anything at all!? I’ve looked everywhere, and nothing has given me an answer. Please help!!
Here is what the fedora looks like now

Maybe a pressure washer? Honestly, I’d let it completely dry and try to brush as much out as possible. After that, I would strip it to just the felt and use a stiff plastic bristle brush while continuously rinsing it with copious amounts of water.
