If you remove the lens, could you put your mask in the washing machine with your playing gear?

playing clothes get washed after every game - couldn't contemplate not doing so - eeewwww!

air bottle - thorough check over end of play and before next, and a quick check before every game.

hopper - cleaned outside after each day - inside only if there were breaks.

marker - varies. quick strip, clean and lube initially, but if it's gunked from breaks then a full strip, though clean and nice lubing. the marker reg however only gets done after around 10-12 boxes worth of paint.

playing clothes - If i can be bothered..currently mine are in my wash basket from the last masters...may get round to washing them....when I played it was much the same for everything...Infact my packs never got washed, only thing I ever cleaned was my gog's.

air bottle - thorough check over end of play and before next, and a quick check before every tourney.

hopper - cleaned night before.

marker - varies. quick strip, clean and lube initially, but if it's gunked from breaks then a full strip, though clean and nice lubing. the marker reg however only gets done after around 10-12 boxes worth of paint. sounds about right

Because i'm far too lazy and tired to write one from scratch so thanks Rider!

After every days play i have my little cleaning routine (maybe a little OCD)

• Marker - stripped right down, cleaned and lubed
• Hopper - stripped down and cleaned. (easy now a rotor has replaced my halo)
• Mask - stripped, cleaned and dried
• Pods - all washed out
• Pants, Jersey & Pack - all washed
• Bottle - always check for any damage
• Squeegees - all washed

And if the OCD really kicks in i even wipe over my kit bag.

I dont think every one goes to this extreme after everydays play but i have a thing about clean kit.

almost exactly the same, except unless i have broken balls in my hopper i dont strip it

i made the mistake of not cleaning my events until i wanted to use em. went to wash em and paint had leaked down the inside of the lens and was now rock hard. cost me £15 i learnt fast
