Subject: [RC] cleaning biothane and
adjusting easy
First I think most gets cleaned only when caught in
the rain.
BUT if you want to clean it
Dishwasher- top shelf no heat cycle same
soap
Sink - fill sink warm water and take a plastic
scrubby pad and wipe it off
I do not suggest you soak tack in water for any
length of time. If the heat seal is not complete the webbing can soak up water
and cause the coating to delaminate(is that a word?)
Pressure washer- just hang it up and pressure wash
it
I just open the tack room door and wash tack the same
time as the trailer.
I blew up the dishwasher opening the door to get the
tack out mid rinse.( I was doing alot after returning from Stephs ride and a
big dust storm.I had set up a booth and everything was coated with
dust)
I have tried many ways to get the hardware to look
new again. It can be cleaned byt the really shiny new look never comes
back.
Remember to check your rein snaps for metal
fatigue!!!
If your rein rubbers are all ripped and worn they can
be replaced easy. Much cheaper then buying new reins.
To adjust your biothane tack spit on
it. What was that nice word that meant spit? It makes it slippery and easy to
adjust. lol... think of the look on your friends face when you slobber on your
horses tack while it is on him. Right up there with mom spitting on a kleenex
to wash you up as a kid
