So I've used Fuller's Earth on my Fed 3, but the look comes out looking to white-ish or light gray-ish. Any tips on how to get it that reddish Cairo dirt look? I've heard that some people have used acrylic paint? Is this true? Where and what to get? Thanks!

Re: Speaking of the Grey Raiders Travel Hat ...

I like both, but if I had to pick, I'd go with the Washington scene. I compare the grey bashes to the following scenes.
The grey Clipper bash = The Idol Temple brown fedora bash
The grey Washington bash = The brown SOC bash
IMO.
Just curious. How much are the Garrison grey fedoras?

Hi all! If a fur felt fedora ends up with possibly too much dirt or distressing for your liking, is there a good way to remove excess of it to get it to where you want? Not just off the fur, but possibly off the ribbon as well. Just curious to know any useful methods. Thanks in advance! :TOH:
