- Reviewed in Canada on February 26, 2025Verified PurchaseMy packable fur/felt dress hat was packed too much and the brim was curled down. Being a favourite hat I was concerned about what I used on it. I can¡¯t believe it works so well. The brim is now stiff but flexible and I sprayed the crown as well and I won¡¯t fold the hat up and sit on it anymore. Got to love it and dried without marks.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 31, 2024Verified PurchaseExcellent product, worked exactly as I needed it to work for on my macrame feathers. I let it dry outside so it dried super quickly.But you can use a light hairdryer to make it go quickly if you need it to. Awesome product. I plan on buying it again (I didn't notice a smell).

- Reviewed in Canada on December 7, 2024Verified PurchaseI'm very pleased with the product .
The product has no strong odor and is very quick to dry
- Reviewed in Canada on April 24, 2025Verified PurchaseI bought this to try to give more structure to my hat and it does make stiffer then using nothing.... but honestly it really does not hold up very well. Would not recommend it for hats....
- Reviewed in Canada on March 26, 2024Verified PurchaseUsed it right away on a crocheted summer hat with a wide brim that has gone too floppy. It's perfect again and I can mold the brim to my liking and it holds its shape.
- Reviewed in Canada on June 28, 2024Verified PurchaseIt stiffened the crocheted earrings I made.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 11, 2024Verified PurchaseI bought this to stiffen some leaves that I crocheted in acrylic yarn that were curling over. This worked really well to stiffen them and keep them that way!
A lot of reviews mention that it takes a long time to dry, but this is easily overcome if you just use a hairdryer between applications - that way you can spray it multiple times and dry it in shape pretty quickly
