Is there a proper way to wash a guidon or a brassarad?

Is there a proper way to wash a guidon or a brassarad?

Answer:

okay for the brass i.e. the tip of the guidon or the pike, use a little bit of brasso and a cloth to get the scratches out. folow the instructions on the canister if you get lost. for the cloth of the guidon i would look at the fabric. is it preshrunk cotton? or is it a blend of cotton and polyester? depending on what the fabric is made of you have to adjust. also the color affects washing too. to be pn the safe side i would go with cold water and i would hang dry it because i dont trust machines with important things. and if the flag is really important to you you should just hand wash it if you know how. just be careful not to get bleach on the fabric because nothing is worse than having a guidon that has a flag with a big black or miscolored spot. good luck and i hope it works. i would check with some more people before taking my advice though because ive never washed the flag.
