What do you use to clean a Wintec Saddle?

Question

For my Wintec Saddle, I just rinse it off with the hose every once in awhile. There are a lot of spots that have dirt on them, but I can't get it off. I don't know if I should use soap or not. What should I used? Also, how many times a week should I clean it?

Answer 1

Usually it's just a damp cloth but you could use a bit of liquid soap if it was especially grubby. Make sure you get it all off again though.

Answer 2

Wintec Saddles are pretty durable and I usually use a damp sponge or cloth with just a dab of mild hand soap. I find it works really well and then when I'm done washing it I just hose it off. Make sure that all the soap is gone before you let it dry. I think that once a week or even longer is more than sufficient for cleaning your saddle I know of people with leather saddles who only clean them once a month! Hope this helps...   :)

Answer 3

You can buy a synthetic saddle cleaner from most saddlery shops. It comes in a pump pack ( spray bottle ) for around $10.95 AU.  This stuff works really well and all instructions are on the bottle including how often to clean. I would not use soap as it is not recommended by Wintec.

Answer 4

baby wipes maybe? just use soap, it probably wont do anything bad
