supercooladinYes this has come in handy and worked for me many times.
Note: make sure you sure whole milk. Skim milk will not work and even 2% milk takes much longer to see the effects.
mike759thank you, a helpful post
DeforestationAre you fucking stupid? Everyone knows that you can almost triple the size of most jackets.
Since heat makes a lot of clothes shrivel up, dipping coats in cold milk makes them "grow" in a way. Basically the frigid temps help the jacket's fibers open, which allows the milk to seep in. The fats in the milk help the fibers to expand, and they stay in the fibers even after a washing. Also, since fat is hydrophobic, it doesn't compromise the waterproofing.
The best way to go about this is to get a garbage bin and 10-12 gallons of milk. This might cost like $40, but it's a lot cheaper than buying a new coat. Pour the milk in the bin and let it sit outside for a bit during the winter. You want to get a slushy consistancy, but nothing should be completely frozen through.
When you're ready, dunk the jacket in. Stir it around a bit so it's saturated with the milk. At this point, you want to let it actually freeze into the milk like an ice block. This is so that the ice expands and pushes the milk fats deeper into those coat fibers. When it's been frozen for a while, break the coat out of the ice.
From what I've seen, this is how long you're going to leave the coat frozen in the milk:
If you want it 1.1 times the size, 30 mins
1.3 times the size, 40 mins
1.5 times the size, 1.5 hours
2 times the size, 8 hours
The great part about this is that you can reuse the milk so you can expand really any outerwear you have.
theabortionatorThis didn't work for me and now I have nothing to eat my cereal with. Did I fuck up by using 2%?
