Regarding jacket care.

[JEL]

How can you argue with mom? I bet she's done that before.

If her tips don't work, WD40 sprayed on the mark then Spray and Wash, then a run through the washer will get it out.

My mark is about 7 years old - many, many washings! I'm gonna try the WD-40 though.

Find out who the ball manufacturer is and ask them why the paint came off the cover.

WD-40 may very well do the trick. Anything that will take Crayola marks off a wall in no time flat should do wonders on the yellow.

Anyone else Scotchgard or Camp-Dry their jackets?

Hi John. Down here in the opposite corner of the country I normally wear the jacket for warmth (like when it drops into the 60s). I don't have to call in the drizzle as much as you do. But I have used Scotchgard just in case.

I hear ya Larry. You've probably heard first hand about how crappy the weahter has been this spring. I have been VERY fortunate and not had any rainouts. OTOH, some have had 5 or more. One school (Seattle Prep) is playing every day this week and 4 days next week to get in most of their makeups.

Too bad, so sad. I had a "snowout." I'll bet some in northern Ohio had more than one snowout! (Heck, the Indians had, what, 3 snowouts??)
