How To Clean Silver Cross Pram Hood

Hey Ladies,
I'm just posting to see what you would use and how you clean your pushchairs/strollers i think its bout time mine had a good clean but i'm not too sure if i could just take it off of the frame and put it in the washing machine or should i just scrub it down and leave it dry? and what would i use cleaning wise? warm water with washing up liquid?

i have a silver cross pop in grey and pink...

I take mine on the garden, get a big bucket full of warm, soapy water (dont put to much fairy in though otherwise you end up with loads of white foam on the fabric) and wipe it down with a cloth and then once ive scrubbed it i go over with a dry cloth and then leave it to dry in the sun or bring it in and leave it next to the radiator if its raining etc outside and i also get the hair dryer on it sometimes to help it dry faster.

I have maclaren techno xt and the covers can come off, I put them on a gentle wash in the machine then either hang outside or on radiator.

I have a cover thing over ours which was part of a footmuff, but we kept the bit she sits on, so I wash that in the washing machine and just hoover the crumbs that have made their way under it! (and theres always loads!) The only part that really gets dirty is the hood, and thats because I put everything on top of it haha, mainly her snacks and mine! I just wipe with warm soapy wwater

Also baby wipes work wonders too if you just need a light wash

The hood on ours is always dirty too due to me putting snacks etc on it!

I wash anything that comes off in the machine, and scrub down and then really really rinse. If I can fit it in the bath, I use the shower head to do it and then leave it to drip a bit in the bath before putting it next to a radiator.
