Question Cleaning L&R Cargo Bags

Hey everybody, how do you clean the cargo bags for the rear lock and ride system? I am sure I can take a sponge and some H2O to them, but I was hoping someone had a slick and neat way to clean the mud off without getting them soaked for days. Thanks.

I use simple green and a hose... Have you tried a stiff brush?

This will be my first attempt at cleaning them. I figured somebody had already put some thought into this before me. So I take a brush to get the cake off, then spray some simple green, light scrub and then hose off? How long do they take to dry? Appreciate the advise as I don't want to mess these things up.

I've been spraying them lightly with a pressure washer for over 3 years now and they are holding up just fine.

Right, I hit them with the simple green. (Watered down maybe 6oz per gallon)
Then hit it with the wet brush and rince off. Mine dry pretty quickly sitting in the sun.

I have the same ones as you. Works good if you keep up with it...

Excellent, thanks! I use a pressure washer on the quad anyway, go to know if I go easy it won't rip the flap off or burn a hole in it!

I clean mine with just soap and a sponge. After cleaning I spray it with Armor All and let it soak until it drys. It look like brand new when its dry.
