Any tips on how to make military pant creases thicker?

Trying to make my uniform perfect for Annual formal inspection ( J.R.O.T.C ) and would like some good ideas.

Start out by folding it where you want the crease to be, steam the heck out of it, apply heavy starch and iron dry. It'll look like a knife has been ironed into your uniform. If you're in basic and can't get the spray starch, use speed stick. It sounds silly but it works great.

The best bet is to actually use a few things on different items.

When I came in the Air Force, we were (still are) rocking the BDU's with an ironed crease. I was on the drill squad at tech school, and found a few tips:

Pants and shirts, start out two nights prior. Fold them inside out and spray "Stay-Flo" (Liquid Starch) down the creases. Let them dry over night. The next day they should feel like cardboard. From there (still inside out), spray heavy starch down the creases. Flip them right-side out and iron with heavy steam. Take your time on each running down each crease. 30 minutes on the pants will make them look great.

If you are wearing the BDU hat. Buy a metal block for it, fit it to the inside. From there, spray hairspray on the inside on it, and put it in the freezer over night for it to harder. The next morning, iron it with the metal block still in it.

DO NOT:

-Put starch on the outside, it will give your clothes an uneven washed look. It will look almost stained because on the starch. Also, it will ruin your iron quickly.

- Use any form of glue or paste, it looks like crap.

I used Faultless spray starch for 4 years, worked fine and I never got gigged for my creases.
