Q. We produce millions of wire coat hangers that are painted or varnished and then baked. We also receive requests from several customers to equip them with cardboard covers on the bottom bar or strut to keep trousers from falling off. I believe a coating of flocking material on the bottom bar will do the same job at a reduced cost. I’d like to try this but don’t know of a cost-feasible means of applying the flocking material. D.C.
