After a few years of cleaning out the hooks of the velcro on my rigs, tedious and annoying, is there a special little trick anyone has for this? or am i just going to have to pick at it whenever there is any excessive buildup of carpet/hair/lint/weeds/any other random stuff that ingrains itself into it over a few jumps/pack jobs?

I've found a stiff brush, like one you use to clean your nails, works pretty well. They're like a buck at most drug stores.

I got a cool tool at the Sportman's Wearhouse in TF for about 3 bucks made just for cleaning velcro, but easier than that is take another piece of hook velcro and drag it across the piece you want to clean a few times.

If you want to be really fancy sew a loop handle to it and call it a "tool".

Try rub it on your scrotum, free.

Damn it... I tried and it didn't seem to work very well. Pain is the word of the last few minutes, did I do it wrong?

The moon tower is looking good there Avery. It's 10 minutes from my house now so say the word.

is that shaved, trimmed, or au natural?

thanks avery, I'm not THAT broke.

I'll try a few of the other options in order to see what works best thank you.

Try using a 'stitch unpicker' thats used in sewing or rigging.
