- The best snapback restoration video on youtube.Just a short video on how I clean and restore hats. All hats can vary depending on age, material, & condition. Sometimes a bit of elbow grease is needed. Make sure the hat value exceeds the time you spend to restore to make it worth it. Not all hats need to be restored or cleaned. In those cases Just rinse and shape. Starch and aqua net are not needed but do work better. They won't be perfect but will be in much better shape. Please note Step # 6 is only until most water has dripped out. The hat needs to be damp to shape. And I know I spelled Oxiclean wrong.

Using balloons to reshape is low key genius! I'm in the process of prepping hundreds of hats for resale. Thanks for the tips!
Any time! Thx for watching!
Thanks for this video. Now I know how to restore my vintage los Angeles raiders hat. 👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄😄
Awesome. But the music made want ice cream
😂
So you're saying the bill holds up to soaking then? Eye opening!
Rob.. that is a great process! Thank you for sharing.. I would have never thought to starch hats. I usually sell as-is or light cleaning. I'll definitely keep these tips in mind going forward!
Thank you!!! God bless!!!
Wow Rob. Thanks so much for sharing with us. Great video !!!!!
Thank you for watching. Should help out on those hat purchases!
Great video, thanks!

Nice thanks
Sweet i love wearing hat and thats a great way to clean
Me too! Been doing it like this for a long time. Very effective.
Nice Tutorial, Love it 😍...
I will use this on a few I need to recover and keep ya posted ... thanks!!
It works great. Jut make sure hat is a bit damp when you blow balloon into hat.Has to dry on the balloon. Thank you for watching.
Nice video! Can I use hair spray on my hat? The material is a little bit silky and shiny. It’s a quilted hat.
Yes you can!
Ooowwwmymoooom you are badass genius
The baloon
You've saved my life
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video! Very informative. Thanks!
Thank you Appreciate that!
Ok dumb question but, do I let it drip-dry until it's fully dry or just until it's done dripping before I insert the balloon?
Great Question! Only until it's done dripping. It needs to dry in the balloon. Also Apply the starch when hat is still damp. Thank you for watching!
It look like the hat was still a bit wet when you blew up the balloon. Does the hat have to be completely dry before you put the balloon and starch on? Or can it be a bit wet still?
Should be damp. That is an error on my part in the video. When that hat stops dripping or is minimal is when you should put a balloon in. That way the hat can still for without starch if you choose, but starch is best. Thanks for watching.
Thanks. Do you prefer washing it in cold water before sticking the balloon in? Or not using soapy water?
@@andrewsusedik8968 If it is a lighter color hat, it has less chance of bleeding so I try to use warm water, but most of the hats are done in cold water. By the time it finishes drip drying it's usually cold anyway.
I've got an old jordan hat that needs cleaning, gonna try this, I'm gonna be pissed if it wrecks my hat but I'll be ecstatic if this works
On your 1st hat, check on it often. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use this method if there is leather or suede on the hat. I have done 1000's of hats this way. Thanks for watching.
Great Video Rob .... !
Thanks Man! Enjoyed the show. Hope this helps you out. I know it has for me.
Geeez, the Balloon method, 10000 IQ (:
👨🏫
Thanks for this Rob!!
Any Time!
What type of starch should I use for reshaping? Thanks. 😃👍
Faultless. Thanks for watching.
u are awesome bro
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
What is the purpose of the starch and are you suppose to put that much on it as so in the video?
To hold it's shap. No, it looked like so much because it wasn't spraying right and it was foaming up. You technically don't need it at all,
Great video. What’s you IG? You mentioned it in a video and I can’t find it. I’m interested in seeing how you store old ads and your process. Very interesting!! Ty
IG is @resellingwithRob Thanks for the comment. I will be doing a video on the process. I have had several inquiries about it. Stay tuned.....
Thought I'd reach out and let you know, I put a video up covering this. Thank you for watching.
Great video.
Dumb question #46..
Any particular size balloon?
Well, as long as it gets big enough to shape the hat and it has to be round. Some balloons look like light bulbs. Don't use those.
@@ecommsquad Hi. I went shopping for balloons today and couldn't find any "round" ones. Where do you get yours & what size do you like best?
@@alicecarvo6398 I really don't look for size, but I get the round ones at Dollar General or Dollar Tree. I have bought them on amazon as well.
@@ecommsquad They only have the 12" size at my Dollar Tree. I thought that would be too big, but I guess you don't have to blow them up all the way. My Fred Meyer had some 9" ones so I picked them up. They were $9.99 for 72 of them. (Seems expensive) If these work, then I'll try to find some less expensive ones on-line. Thanks for responding and have a fantastic day!
@@alicecarvo6398 Yes 12" would honestly be the best size. You figured out why (no blowing up all the way) $10 is pricey. We get the 25 for $1.Look on amazon if you can't find them locally. Good Luck!
How would you recommend going about this with a wool, fitted hat? (It’s just a braves hat, however the owner wore it to a playoff game in the 90s)
That is hard to say without seeing the hat. Is the hat from the 90's or older? With wool hats I would not use oxiclean. I would use dreft baby laundry soap. If it has stains, you may need the dreft stain remover. Dreft is a detergent meant to take away baby stains of all types and it is very gentle on the fabric for the babies themselves. Always use cold water on wool. Then rinse in cold water then put the balloon in. Instead of having the balloon come though the snap hole, place right at the edge of the hat in same area.Then you may want to invest in a hat stretcher just in case it tries to shrink. You can find $10-$15 on ebay. I was going to do a more in depth video on the cleaning since I have had a ton of DM's on IG. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Reselling Rob Thanks!
Reselling Rob also he got it in 97-98 so yes it is well in the 90s
@@Oakleaf700 Vanish is a stain remover which I'd only recommend to use on touch-ups. Not sure what your son's hat looks like, but it kind of sounds like you may have but too much oxi clean. without seeing it, hard to say. I would rinse or soak in a nothing but water bath (COLD Water) every so often agitate it. Then empty the water and do it again. Sometimes if you use too much oxi clean it will stay in the hat. Try that and let me know what happens.
will this take care of the shape of the crown ?
Usually, but some hats can be tricky. Most should fix though.
@@ecommsquad how did you remove the dirt from the sweatband? did you use clorox ?
@@dolfdolf I made a paste and you keep working it. I have used bleach in the past and you have to put it on a q-tip touch-up, let it dry. Do it again let dry. It's a process but it works.
Do you recommend ironing out any creases while the hat is still damp? I have a few vintage and retro script snapbacks I wanna restore.
I will be uploading an in depth video by the end of the day. I have had a lot of requests for it. Thank you for watching!
How did you manage to take out the heavy stain on the sweat band?
Thank you
By hand using tooth brush and creating an oxiclean paste of sorts and letting it sit. I only do that to hats that have good value. I sold the hat in the video for $80 so it's worth the extra effort. Thank you for commenting and watching.
Thanks
Great video with some new tips I hadn't thought of. Thank you!
Is your IG handle still the same? I looked, but couldn't find you.
Thank you! Appreciate you watching. I'm going to make an in depth one due to demand. My IG no longer has the with in it. Just Resellingrob.
@@ecommsquad i would love to see a more in depth video. Awesome work
@@mykensha23 Thank you! We are going to start doubling down on the channel showing people how to make / save money which includes how to videos and the in depth hat video is part of the agenda since I have had tons of interest in it. Thank you very much for watching!
Very well done. thank you so much for sharing.
Thank You Very much! Let the profits grow!
dude do u know how to remove crease from trucker hats? cuz I have this old trucker hat that I want to wear but it had a lot of crease
Depends on where the crease is. You can send me a pic on IG
nvm bro I fixed it. the crease was on the crown and I just iron it while it's wet
Is it the same process for a foam trucker cap?
Yes. You just need to use judgement depending on how fragile the foam is. If the foam is too fragile, I recommend doing it by hand then start from rinse portion.
@@ecommsquad thanks Rob! i hope you make a video like this again but for a foam trucker cap, because i can't find any on TH-cam.
@@gilangfresandy I used the same technique on my old John Deere foam trucker.It works a treat.
I have a answer but my English is terrible, sorry 😅
What is that's for spraying?
Name?
Thanks 😂
Starch. Thanks for watching.
A little heavy on the starch, bub. Spray 1/2 of that & brush it in
It was because the can was not spraying right and it actually sprayed less than it looked. The way it looked I should have done 1/4. But as the video states, you don't even need it at all.
Does it matter what kind of dish soap you use ?
I only use dawn. You can probably get by with another, but dawn they literally use it to take oil off animals during oil spills. Something to take into consideration. Thank you for watching.
Thnks for the vid man
Bsd ass video! Great info. Thanks
Thank you very much! I have had a lot of DM questions on Instagram about the process. I'm going to do a in depth one soon. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Where are you located, do you live in the Los Angeles area? How much do you charge to reshape my hat?
Hey Bro, I'm not in L.A. anymore. I have not come up with a pricing plan yet for hat restorations. It's in the works. I have had a lot of people asking me about it through IG. Thanks For watching.
After rinsed how long before you put in ballon
When it stops dripping, but still damp.
nice bg music,,soooo classical..
Now u still reselling vintage snapback hat?.
Yes I am.
@@ecommsquad where can i find?
@@mohamadnor2364 I sell them locally not online. We have a huge vintage community here. However we will be eventually putting them on ebay as we want to take our online vintage presence to the next level.
@@ecommsquad can u be my supplier one day...i reseller vintage item to..i want buy vintage mesh trucker hat in bundle..where we can talk and chat..?
Wanna sell your cap sir. Let me know pls
Do you have caps for sale?
Not at the moment. Just put my old stock in a lot and sold. Bringing in more soon! Thanks for watching!
@@ecommsquad I need a lot of hats
I like USA production hats.
Can you send me pictures?
Much easier than the balloon is simply stuff a plastic bag from the grocery store full of other plastic bags.
@@rasnrecycling7956 Yes about 15 to 20 Walmart style bags stuffed in a hat. You can just reuse the bags full of bags after each use. I just think if you are doing 20 or 30 at a time, its much easier than blowing up the balloon. I ran my own vintage hat shop for years and thats how we did it. Even when we stopped using the starch, they still maintained their form when they dried with the bags in them. Other than, that your video pretty much is the same method we used as well.
It may work with bags, but I will guarantee the balloon works better. The bags can leave lumps if not done properly. If the bags start to fall out of the hat so will the hat. The balloon is a tight fit and will not say or fall out. I do 100 hats at a time. With the balloon not only will if work faster, but it will work better. I have done hat restorations for 20+ years. I have used balls, towels, craft paper, hat molds mannequin heads tissue paper etc....the balloon works best. Not to mention, I'd need a ton of bags to shape the hats I do. Different strokes for different folks. Tons of people have praised me for this method. You don't have to use it, it's just showing how I do it. Thank you for commenting and giving people another idea.
@@ecommsquad We don't do hats anymore, but have done thousands and thousands when we operated our shop. We would buy a case of the bags from Sam's club and just supplement them with ones we got from the grocery store, plus from friends/neighbors. I just can't imagine blowing up 100 balloons at a time when we could fill the hat with bags in 2 or 3 seconds. Your hats look great, my only point was time.
@@papertimemachine3865 Tried the bags and tried the balloon, Balloon works 1000 times better than bags, and hat keeps a much better shape with balloon. Also it's 1 breath to blow the balloon up so its very quick. You say 2 or 3 seconds to stuff the hat with bags and do it properly.. I call bullshit on that lol balloon is much quicker:)
Wow
Nice cap
can i do this with a 250$ baseball cap from gucci ?
Hat value does not matter. As long as the hat is not Leather or suede you can do this. On a hat that expensive, I would check on it often while soaking. I have done this with $1000 hats. Thanks for watching.
All your hats look like a balloon after?
If you just keep blowing it could yes, but if you eyeball it, you will not have any issues.
@@ecommsquad okay thanks I'm going to restore a hat. Shall i send u before and after pics
Yo whats your ig?
19th Vintage
24 raiders hat
If i dont have a balloon can i use condom for reshaping my hat peace yo!
Only if it's designed for elephantiasis.
@@ecommsquad 😁😁😁😁✌✌✌ anyway thanks for the vid man it helps a lot to me god bless stay safe
@@ghaesp4289 You too my friend! ✌
Omg the music so annoying 😒
nice. do you ever get 'bubbles' in your hats? if so, any idea how to prevent that?
Very seldom do I get bubbles, If I do, I just sell as is or trash. Over time you see which hats do what things then you can use better judgement on how to clean. moving forward. Thank you for watching!
Wow I got sold a used hat on eBay full of aquanet
Who was the seller?
The ending 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol I'm glad someone liked it.
