How do I clean that, and get an even finish again? It has a sweat-darkened area on the brim. The brim on my hat has been sweat-stained over several wearings.

I is not pretty or fancy. I just want to give a general thorough cleaning, but my wife says throwing it in the clothes washer will make it come apart. How do I give it a good thorough washing without worrying that it will come apart or damage other clothes in the washer? I'd like it to keep the same size and form when dried. Do I need to put it in a form or block it to dry to ensure it keeps the shape and size? Thanks. I have an old felt hat that I use for outside work. I is not pretty or fancy.

How can I get the stain out? It is only on the under side of the brim. My husband spilled coca cola on the brim of a nice felt hat. How can I get the stain out?

Although it is in a hat box for protection in the top of the closet it still got damaged over the years. It has water circles around the brim and is molded spots on it. I want to clean it and keep it as long as can. Do you know what to clean it with or is it to late? Thank you so much for the advise.
