Bag cleaning
« on: October 31, 2014, 12:23:35 PM »
Ladies and Gents,

How do you guys clean your bags? Some spray bottle mixture? Soak in hot water? Hose?

I'm trying to clean up my 2 and 3 ball travel totes, and I just realized I've never cleaned a bag.

I don't think I've ever really cleaned a bowling bag. I suppose I would use something like Simple Green sprayed onto a rag. I'm not sure it really makes a whole heck of a lot of difference.

Can I ask why you need to clean a bowling bag?

I would try using a hand held steamer, wipe the run off with a damp towel. Or maybe some good foaming carpet spot cleaner, it might lift the dirt to the surface where you could wipe it off.

I was hoping you wouldn't say something about losing reaction due to oil residue in the bag. Lol

I just bought new bowling bags, but I had the same question regarding cleaning my tennis bag, which is of a similar material.  I asked the store where I bought it, but they had no answer.

You might try contacting the manufacturer, to see what they recommend.

I guess my tennis bag tends to get dirtier, since it is sometimes used outside, where the bowling bags are not.
