Title: Best way to wash/clean batting gloves?
Post by: patty93 on March 10, 2010, 05:03:59 PM

I just wondered if there was a particularly good way to wash batting gloves. Has anybody done it before? how'd they do it?
I know it's a stupid question but hey-ho :D
thanks guys

i handwashed mine, shoved them in the airing cupboard, and straight afterwards wore them in again, just like stretching my hand and stuff, cause otherwise the material becomes stiff.

Step 1
Place a small amount of a gentle, moisturizing soap such as Dove on a damp cloth and bring it to a light lather.
Step 2
Rub the damp cloth on the leather without putting too much water on the leather.
Step 3
Wipe away lather with a fresh damp cloth. Don't rinse the leather in water.
Step 4
Polish leather with a dry towel.
Step 5
Treat leather with a leather conditioner after it has dried completely.
