NJS 3960 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Got an interview tomorrow and have noticed my suit jacket looks a tad shabby. Need quick advice for removal of: Dust/lint (No K-Tel or Ronco devices available) Stains which are probably hair wax (yes I am slightly gay that way) Tried using wet bog roll but disaster almost ensued - started to break down and stick to material making it worse.

Monkeys Fist 38544 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Dust - Sellotape Wax - try putting absorbent paper, newspaper or the like, over the stain then rub it with a warm iron. Should lift the stain onto the paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3960 Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Blasted it with the steam jets from the iron - seems to be doing the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Wrap sellotape round your hand, sticky-side out, to get the dust/lint/bog roll off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19727 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 buy a new suit. if it's a job interview, the confidence a sharp new suit will give you might make the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
