I only got my RS in October but it really needs washing or some sort of clean. I seem to sweat a lot *blushes*, when out on the XC course mostly, and now whilst you can't exactly smell it a mile off it's a bit pongy. :o

I've done the sponge clean and sprayed it with febreeze but that hasn't really worked and seeing as I've not had it that long I can only imagine it getting worse. Any ideas?
 
Apparently cat litter (the clean stuff) has amazing odour wicking properties... Might be worth you burying your RS in some to see if it works.

Otherwise - on a dry, sunny day, just hang it on the washingline and let it air properly!

NB: dry sunny days at this time of year? Unlikely.
 
If she does mean the Race Safe Body Protector, you can just sponge it clean, using a solution of washing powder in warm water, and then rinse it by sponging again in fresh warm water. Then towel dry it, and hang it up to fully dry in a warm room. :)
 
I have a Racesafe RS2000 and have only ever wiped it down with wet cloth.
Never noticed it smelling too much though so never has a need to do more, it doesn't get used more than a half dozen times a year at most.
 
LOL Sorry I do mean Racesafe body protector. Should have explained better but was in a rush to get to school.

I may give the cat litter a go. It's only the flappy bit's under the arms, I find they are quite tight fitting.

even worse, my middle name begins with an A and my mum wanted to call me that as my first name....therfore my initials would be ARS!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek:
Thankfully she realised that and put them the other way round, Phew, saved me a lifeime of taunting...:p
 
Now, I struggled with the RS and thought it was riding school but what the hell are bingo wings, even more confused now!
