I have always had trouble with Beltring Mud and getting rid of it. I can scrub it off my vehicle eventually, but I am having problems with my clothes. How do others get the mud off, as washing doesn't seem to shift it. One pair of trousers I wore during the W&P show got muddy around the ankle and I cannot shift the mud stains. Any advice would be welcome.

Hi,

 

Not an expert at this, but the soil at the Hops farm is particularly fine-grained - and finds its way into the fibres.

 

The best countermeasures are :

 

1. wash it with a brush and mild soap at the show (ie stop the soil from hardening) or

 

2. use something like a dispersant such as `vanish` or `shoot`(thats the products the wife uses). Fine for you average NATO stuff but, may be a bit strong for original wartime clothing

 

A special degreaser is available or oil stains.

 

Regards

 

Steve
