Has anyone got any cunning ways to remove the nylon "fur" from a plastic parcel shelf? I need the parcel shelf intact....

Do you mean the flocking? If so I would have thought sand blasting would do the job- it's not stuck on very well....

What about a wire brush to start off with then onto sandpaper once it gets closer to the grain?

sandblasting might be an idea- will give that a go will also try wire brush, it's all gotta be worth a go..


Wonder whether to try soaking in bath for a day?

I've seen loads of parcel shelves delaminated after being left in the rain too long. I wouldn't soak it in the bath.
