I do it exactly like the post above and have had good results, although for the 500 series with the lettering on the bag, I have had some fading, and will only turn them inside out and vacuum, but not wash. |

but washing the bag is the sing most satisfying part of "spa day" for me. I use a bucket with warm water and mild detergent. This is of course l,after i have emptied and vacuumed the bag thoroughly first. On some i have used the washing machine on the gentle cycle if i deem them strong enough.
So much muddy water after a full vacuuming! I really wound't want that stuff around waiting to become airborn as soon as i turned the machine on. |
