Saddle pad cleaning day!
I just got back from a show this week and needed to clean a bunch of pads. My method:
🧼 Spray n wash or similar pretreatment for marks
🧽 Oxyclean in machine
🫧 Small amount of regular detergent
💧 Warm water & medium spin with extra rinse, inside out, one pad at a time or 2 max
👚 Line dry
This seems to work pretty well for me!! I have a little stubborn stain near the girth on my sand pad but otherwise it's good. Note that my saddles are both brand new and mark up pads pretty badly! A couple before and after images here.
