I hand washed it first to get rid of most of the crap. The picture is of the first wash. After the second one i bunged it into the washer with some softener.

This chassis could do with replacing as it's became really scratched and now has deep (ish) "grooves". But i'm not going to bother replacing mine as i'm not going to be using it that much. I still greased it though. |

New bag. Also I'm not really keen on how the paper bag is squashed in. It seems too skinny and a couple of inches too long. Ah well
