    A damp cloth/sponge with warm soapy water, then pat it dry with a cloth? Thats what I do anyway, but then again I don't spend my time sliding down hills in Fingal like stone cold :D

    My multicam is waterproof so i jump in the shower boots on and all and clean it. Once done, i take it off and dry the lot on a clothes horse.
    Easy peasy.
    :D

    When i had a back garden i used to just use the hose, lots of power rips off most of the heavy stuff, as the other guys said leave the ligh muck there.

    I don't recommend the shower idea anymore, supposedly it makes the shower filthy. pfft.

    Baby wipes for the guns.

    Basin and a days soaking followed by much scrubbing for the rest.

    Yeah just give it all a good shake and fire it in the machine, no worries. Do spend time getting the boots clean and waterproofed, a little effort goes a long way there. :)
