Just Get The Power Washer On It, Even With The Stuff In It And Then Put It In A Place Where The Sun Really Gets To And Let It Dry.  :daumenhoch:

iv used this method on motor cycle helmets to , all mine have removable linings but they still get bit smelly to i take em to shower put old towel in the bath to rest lid on then wet inside with shower , then use baby shampoo in the liner rubin it in , it realy shifts the muck to !!!!!!! then rinse with shower , if liner comes out nows the time to spin dry that bit !!!! if not gently squease out the excess water out padding then stuff old dry towel in the lid n leave while havin cup of tea  ;) then when its not drippin place in airing cupboard for couple of days , not where it will get to hot though or it WILL damage it
should never put any lid to cook on radiater or in direct sunlight as this will degrade the shell n poss the paddin to  :shocked:
hope this helps yer

I'm with Sonic. Shampoo is the recommended detergent for lids.

What can i say to that eh?

either the sweat you get when the endorphines are realeased to kill the pain from the stack you've had.

Or the number of laps i do in practise, must be double what most of the old school do, so increases my chances of falling off percentage.
