Whats the best way to clean these covers without damaging them.

Hi There,
It all depends on how dirty they are, but I have been brave with lots my kit and taken the plunge so to speak!
It is sheepskin, so treat it as a woollen jumper, fill the bath up to 4 inches with tepid water, add liquid detergent to the water (not too strong! – you could use a non bio product like fairy snow or dreft) mix, then lay the cover in face up and just gently rub the cover clean. Dont keep immersed for too long, pull the plug on the bath, fill up again with tepid water and gently rinse. Then dry flat. Hot water will cause shrinkage, and do not spindry.
I have washed lots of kit, Frankenstein LSJ’s Pressure Jerkins and they have all responded marvellously to a little TLC.
Hope you have good results.
