Rookie Mistake (Need Help!)

[bolthead]

I remember something called "SILLY PUTTY". We used to spread it flat on the Sunday funny papers. When it was peeled up, it had soaked up enough ink to show the picture (in reverse) on the surface of the putty which had been in contact with the paper.

Brilliant......:eusa_clap

Why didn't the band leave a stain on your forehead?

OK, its good as new now.

OK, thank you all for the wonderful advice. Although I didn't follow any of your advice, I thought you'd appreciate the final fixed product. lol Anybody want to venture a guess as to just how I got it looking like this?

That knight on the white horse that would zap stuff with his lance? Is Ajax stronger than dirt?

 

[mtechthang]

Pardon me if this is a dumb question.

Tell us or sell it to us!!! (My guess- you sent it to Art.)

 

[kowalskt63]

OK, enough suspense already

Don't laugh first of all....
I ran over to Home Depot and picked up a can of Rustoleum Satin finish spray paint, color Ivory. After a few coats, couldn't tell that it was ever stained. I figure if it's good for outdoor wicker furniture, then surely it will work on my hat. So, thats the story. :eusa_clap

Nice Idea!

Hey Kabuto, you just gave me an idea. I'll get my trusty can of Rustoleum out, and you can tag sports team logo's on the hats. Then we'll sell them at the concession stands at all the games. Eventually we'll get a contract with MLB or NFL, and not only will we become millionaires, but we'll also kick off the next big historical wave of Fedora wearing in the world. Just a thought...
