I might be having a custom shot with Tar and Feathers and a concern came up about cleanup. What's the easiest way to do this so that you don't clog up a drain or cause problems? There may be feathers mixed in with gunge, etc. The concern is feathers clogging the drain both on top or possibly even getting into the drain?
you cant get feathers off you without using the tub. the best way to do it is to stop the drain. in between the shower you have to use this cage like thing and let some water down and put the cage deal over the drain.....takes forever for water to go through it but you do your best.
then....after about an hour of repeating this process so you dont overflow the tub? you get a paster strainer and get as much out as you can.
but with down feathers? the ones that are ACTUALLy for a good tar and feathering? are every size. from tiny to big but they are fluffs. some will go down the drain. along with hair, gunge, etc.
I have always had to have someone come out and snake the drain bc i dont have a snake long enough to reach as far down as it needs to. and i dont wanna use one that long bc i am not a plumber. just putting gunge down the drain is bad enough. along with hair, paint, gunge and then? you cannot stop those little pieces from going down.....they just WILL. its best to buy 2 jugs of this environmentally friendly stuff (its about 25 bucks a gallon) but its an enzymer....use it....and a snake.....bc i have found out.....those little pieces will by pass you. no matter what you do.
BEST IDEA. is to be able to go outside and hose off. lol. but alas. we cant all do that.
i learned the super hard way that those itty bitty feathers will clog your drains or atleast slow them down to where you call a plumber and they pull out a nice hunk of those and "theres your problem" so? i get prepared if imma get feathered! its a looooong process of being super careful. it takes a looong time. then? you gottta get the black stains off your tub where the water went down so slow.
okay did anyone catch any of that? lol. i dont know IF I EVEN DID! HAHAHH
NOW, if you were just doing some paint or some syrup and feathers? yeah. you may be able to get a bucket or something....sit on the tarp wth some rags and wipe off as much as you can...but those rags? where do you clean them off? the sink? the washer? those feathers will clog AAAANNNNYYYYTHING. they are awesome and so fucking fun but little devils! lol
honestly? i would do that shoot in a hotel room.....just let them feathers go down THEIR drains. lol! im considering it. thats so shitty of me. lol

I was hoping that someone had found an ingenious way to remedy this situation. Anything where you are having to have a plumber snake the drain seems to be the wrong way to go haha. That's very expensive. There has to be a better way. A hotel might be the way to go haha. XD
I tossed a message to a few producers who have done featherings to see what they did. (MG, Cing&Soul, CustomFetish)
