Default xXBADGERXx`s Top Tip #1

I was giving the Alpinestars a bit of a clean today after a particularly messy foray on the bike . I washed off the Countryside spatter and dried them , then gave them a quick squirt with Pledge . They are synthetic Leather so don`t take long to do . I then picked up a Yellow duster and gave them a quick wipe down . I looked in horror as the Velcro grabbed up loads of Yellow lint on the Hook part of the Velcro .



Doh!!!!!!! . I had a rummage around and found something under my sink still in it`s packet . I looked at it and thought "What the heck , it`s gotta be worth a punt" . I opened the packet and 5 seconds later the boots looked like this ..........



And what did I use for removing the offending Yellow Fluff ?



One of these , A wiry Dog brush called a "Slicker Brush" , very handy for removing stuff from Velcro .. only thing now is the Mutt ^..^ is looking at it longingly and now expects a pampering ....... Tough eh

Did you give your Mutt a pampering after teasing it so?

You've hung your wallpaper upside down.
