 I accidentally scorched some black velvet on an alteration. I had lightly ironed a seam with a peice of velvet on top as I have done in the past but the nap was crushed anyway. Is there anything I can do to bring the nap back up. Thanks!

Try steaming (without touching the fabric to the heat/steam source) and then brushing against the nap (NT)(This won't eliminate any melted or discolored areas)Wednesday, May 06, 01:37:45pm
