Black Coat. White Cat. Panic.
You’re five minutes late. The Uber is already idling outside. You grab your favorite black wool coat—the expensive one—and look in the hallway mirror.
Disaster.
It looks like you wrestled a polar bear. You can’t walk into a meeting looking like this. You can’t go on a date looking like this. It screams “mess.”
So, what’s the move?
The Sticky Roller Scam
You probably reach for that plastic handle with the roll of tape. You know the drill.
You roll once. The tape is full. You try to peel off the dirty layer, but you can’t find the edge. You pick at it with your fingernail, get frustrated, and finally rip off three sheets at once. Great. Now you have fresh tape. You do one sleeve. It’s full again.
It’s a cycle of waste. You are literally throwing money in the trash can, sheet by sheet. And let’s be honest—sticky tape barely grabs the heavy hairs woven into thick wool. It just pats them down.
Fix It For Good
Stop buying refills.
The ChomChom Roller doesn’t care if you have five minutes or five seconds. It doesn’t run out of sticky paper. It doesn’t need a fresh battery.
It just works.
But clothing is tricky. It’s not a sofa. It moves. If you just wave the roller over your sleeve while wearing it, you won’t get enough friction. The fabric bunches up. The roller slides. Nothing happens.
Technique is Everything
You need tension.
Here’s the pro move:
Take the coat off. Lay it on a flat surface—a table or a tight bedspread work best. Hold the shoulder of the coat down firmly with one hand. Stretch the fabric taut.
Now, attack it.
Use short, fast, back-and-forth strokes with your other hand. Zip-zip-zip. Because you’re holding the fabric tight, the roller can actually generate that static charge we talked about. It rips the hair right out of the wool weave.
Flip. Repeat. Done.
The Ultimate Travel Hack
Ever arrive at a hotel, unpack your suit, and realize it picked up lint from god-knows-where inside your suitcase?
Hotel lint brushes are garbage. And good luck finding a store open at 11 PM before your morning conference.
Toss a ChomChom in your carry-on. It’s light. It’s durable. It doesn’t stick to your clothes inside the bag like an exposed tape roller would. It stays ready.
You look sharp. You save money. And you stop stressing about the cat.
Simple logic.
