as above lads ? do u reckon a 30 degree wash with a full spin will damage me floaty . intending to wash without detergent then placing it in the dryer on a low setting ? any suggestions as to any other optimal way of cleaning floaties?
 
mine goes in on a cold wash then hang it on line mate but other people may have better options, mine always cums up brand new this way though
 
If its just muddy scrub it with a hard brush and hot water (no soap)
If it stinks I put mine through a cool wash with soap spin it a couple of times and re-proof it.
 
Using my Entec 2 for the 5th winter & all I do with mine is clean it with a mild soapy solution then spray some fabreze on it & hang it on the line outside for a good airing off.
 
We use the shower head, warm water, wee bit of fairy liquid, light brush, hang to dry. Works well, still waterproof. Personally I would never risk the washing machine.
 
I usually hang mine on the washing line and hose down with cold water. If it`s a bit grubby I just sponge it down with a bit of washing up liquid. Still as waterproof as when I got it 5 years ago.
 
I would go with the two previous posts hose or sponge down and dry, don't put it in a washing machine or dryer
 
Av had mine in washn machine, I bought some cleaner/water proofer from blacks outdoor shop and use that when it gets a tad smelly
