To clean a shammy, place it in a washing machine with traditional detergent, or hand wash it with soap and warm water. Just make sure to never place your shammy in a dryer! This will damage the absorbency of the material, and ruin your product.
Another way to prolong the life of your shammy is to let it dry flat. Shammyâs dried this way become like a hard piece of cardboard. However, it will quickly revert back into a normal towel once immersed in water. Just make sure you donât fold or bend your shammy until it is moist again.
