I took two of my sleeping bags to the dry cleaners.

soap flakes, tech wash or straight with little detergent.... flush out any conditioner first ideally

I have had an old "trakker ‘peach skin' for well over 15 years or more, maybe 20 years, when it comes to cleaning, I just sling it into the washing machine and use whatever washing powder I have at the time, give it 30 minutes cold wash, no conditioner (it can ruin some fleece) and spin dry and chuck it over the washing line to dry.

The only thing extra I do is remove all the plastic buckles, stops it making a racket in the drum as it washes.

Jic it might be of interest to anyone who can't fit a bag in their washing machine.

Our local smallish Morrisons have just installed large washme.com washing machines outside their store, stand alone units, could be handy

My Mrs has been using my Fox Ventec Mk1....might be useful....far too big for a normal washing machine
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.
