How does it get cleaned? Hi... how do you clean this towel after using it?

For normal use, you just rinse it. For a Bug Out, you are addressing a fundamental survival problem with keeping any towels or textile materials clean. This is a quick dry off towel, and not for an exfoliating effect, so it should never get that funky to begin with. If the towel did get funky or really dirty for some reason use a Sani Wipe and/or the Skin Brush (both are in my BOB list). This towel can truly take a beating, so the skin brush will not mess it up.

So I rinse conditioner from my hair using a cup with my head flipped over. I then take the towel, a little at a time, and scrunch up to dry. It's relatively small but SUPER absorbent. I recommend it. But if you can find a terry cloth towel it's the same thing.

i have not yet cleaned it only aired it out. I intend to wash it in a gentle warm wash in the washing machine when it needs it.

Have you tried cleaning it? Also, make sure you are not putting it on a towel or cloth...it will overheat.

I just wipe it out with either a damp cloth or paper towel. Nothing seems to really stick to the surface, so scrubbing is never an issue. I love it.

I'm in agreement most likely mold. Soaking in bleach my clear it up. I had a cup with a form of clear plastic lining that developed mold like that. I tried bleach with didn't seem to work. It might be in your best interest to just replace like you should replace cleaning towels. If this happen to me I will probably replace the thing if bleaching it doesn't work.

I scrub it by hand and then rinse it. No problem is doing that. Not sure it would work by machine washing it.

I don't really clean it. I just wipe it out with a paper towel after each use.

If I remember correctly, the instructions said to clean it with a "soft" cleanser...something like soft scrub.

I always put mine in a cup of soapy water and let it run for a minute, then rinsed and dried. It always seem to come clean. Hope this helps.

I haven't used it much but, I have washed it once. I wash it by itself on regular load and I dry it on cool to medium heat. It came out good for me.... Good luck!

I just rinse it out with hot water and a brush. How else would you do it? Not in the dishwasher for sure.

I wipe it out with a paper towel after each use, and wash by hand every two or three days. I also leave it on 24/7

I wash mine like so: tilt it and keep it looking (bristles) down under the pouring lukewarm water and using shampoo to wash it. Wash out the shampoo thoroughly and then gently squeeze the bristles to get some of the water out, dab it on a clean towel, and just let it air dry.

I have put it in the dryer one time after washing but it takes a while to dry. Now I just take it to the dry cleaners and have them take care of it. To me it is worth the 20 dollars to get it dry cleaned.

Depends on the issue. Heavy soiling I would hose it out, wash with something- like Simple Green - hose again and air dry.Just dirty-wipe willl Simple Green then a clean damp towel
