I decided to order a new piece of cloth. In addition, I’m going to the craft store Monday to pick up some picture frame backing material as a new frame for the cloth. I think the corrugation of the cardboard I used had something to do with this. More solid material would definitely be better.
I tried some water on a scrap piece of cloth and it does stain, so that is out. You can iron it with a damp cloth over it with no ill effects.
Mike, I didn’t know they still made spray starch. Of course I never wore dress shirts during my working career. Worth a try.
I will say this is the hardest cloth I’ve ever worked with. It’s extremely hard to maintain the pattern when pulling it taught, but then again, maybe it’s me.
