Washing a Down Sleeping Bag - 02/22/16 12:45 PM
I just caught my puppy, a Certified Mongrel Dog (mostly terrier), peeing on my sleeping bags. I had a moment of lapsed attention, and she's not usually allowed in that room, but just this once, and for just a moment. Gah, it's aggravating.
How do I wash the down bag? I want to use Woolite and do it by hand in the bath tub, like I do with my wool sweaters. Do I really need the Nikwax Down Wash Direct?
EDIT: I don't know if this matters, but I have very soft water here, so I can get away with using a tiny amount of whatever detergent or soap I end up using. I generally use All Free Clear on my clothes, so that's another option.
