Vinyl windshield cover through washing machine?

Question

I can't imagine this would be best for maximum life. But wondering if anyone successfully put it through machine wash? Maybe a short gentle cycle.

Normally I scrub it on my driveway. Daydreaming of a lazier way of doing it which may get it cleaner.

Friend of mine did it and it screwed up all the stitching threads......and he was back to the driveway with a  brush and soap after having to buy a new one!  :W

Don't think I'd try that....... I found an easier way than laying it on the driveway and scrubbing. Lot less elbow grease with just this and a towel,just wipe it on and dry when it is installed on the windshield.

Comes out nice and white.

I can't possibly imagine wasting any less energy than laying it flat on the driveway, spray with Simple Green, and hose off. Trying to stuff that in a machine is too much like real work.

OK scratch that.   But on mine even with the simple green, it always needs a good scrub with a brush.  Now and then I do clean it in place on windshield using mild cleaner.
