If it's going to be used for football, only water and very mild soap (harsher cleaners can chemically damage the plastic and padding, harming their protective abilities) - if only for viewing/decoration - use as strong of cleansers as you want, bleach even if it's a white helmet.

there are some chmicals you can buy for cheap but the free way is to spit into them and rub it , then rinse with water and ware.\nDon't be disgusted, the navy seals and scubadivers do it

Turn it upside down to get all the liquid out and let it dry.  Then use alcohol on a cloth to remove the sticky stuff.

Best way of cleaning leather is to use Saddle soap. Just follow the directions. I've been using it on my leg pads for over ten years now, and my pads are still in great shape. Same with my blocker, although my blocker glove may need replacing soon. For other gear that are not leather, chest and arm pads and pants, little bit of soap and a scrub brush. Helmets just need some type of spray, not Fabreeze, it stinks way too much. Hope this helps.

Use a mild hand or dish soap. Just make sure you rinse them very well, to get rid of any soar residue. Also it is better to let them drip dry, if you use a towel you will end up with fuzzes all over them.

You can get your gear cleaned -- there's services that do that.  Ask at your local pro shop.\n\nBut really, as far as gear goes, prevention's worth a pound of cure in this case.  *Always* take your gear, all your gear, out of your bag.  Spread it out to dry.  Every time.  \n\nI've been religious about making sure my gear makes it out of the bag to dry after every game, and it doesn't smell at all.\n\nI'm not sure I'd put vinegar on your gloves if the palm is leather.  Vinegar's about a ph3, which is reasonably acidic, and your gloves are constantly under assault from the acid your skin generates... I'd think that would only eat through them quicker.\n\nI'd try putting your gloves out in the sunshine a few times, palm down so the leather doesn't dry out too much.\n\nBut in the end -- ask anyone who does it -- drying your gear completely each time is really the best way to keep it from getting stinky.

The best way is to spray them down with Lysol disinfectant because the equipment has a lot of bacteria on it. I would say spray all the equipment out and then dry and then do it again. If you don't want to do it yourself, there are places that clean hockey equipment professionally. They can even have it done the next day for you. Check with your local rink and see if their are any businesses that offer this service. It's a must that you clean the equipment due to all the bacteria that grows in your equipment. This could cause you to get sick.

nope...and don't wash it...I thought washing my husbands disgusting hat similar to your description would make it come clean, but the sweat more or less bleached the hat...get a new one!

I usually dry clean mine, it's normally less than $5.00 and they press it for you too, so it looks nice when you head out to the old ball game.\n\nThat is if you're talking about an authentic jersey, If you mean a game-used or game-worn, DO NOT WASH IT, it will lose all value.

I always use warm water and mild dish soap. This will clean the disk if there isn't alot of deep scratches.

You use Hydrogen Peroxide and Magnizium Phosphate.Mix together to make a thick paste, and apply. Let dry then brush off,and spray with clear coat. Bleach will deteriorate the skull.

The best way to clean a LCD monitor is with a mix of rubbing alcohol and water. Use a ratio of 80/20 - 80 percent water and 20 percent alcohol. Use a soft cloth, lint-free. Do not use paper towels or paper products, they will leave lint all over the screen. Do not spray the liquid directly on the screen put it on the cloth and wipe the screen gently. The LCD screen is very sensitive and prone to scratches. Do the cleaning with the monitor off or else you could damage the pixels.
