Are they just dirty from lots of shows or are they covered in something else?
I normally hand-wash these fabrics in warm soapy water (same as I do for down jackets)

As for the biggest wand I use fantasic or windex and a cloth towl
for the bigger wand set I washed them by hand the first time keeping the black away from the while as I was not sure if this material would run or not. I am thinking just thowing them inthe wash next time. have fun sam

I keep a lint roller in the bag for last minute pre-show wand 'grooming' too.

I have put the covers in the washing machine. They came out perfectly clean but they did shrink a bit in the dryer. But they ultimately stretched out to the right size and are still working great.

I would strongly suggest calling the manufacturer directly and asking THEM. They are (as I have heard, anyway) great people to work with and would, I am sure, be more than delighted to help.

Let us know what you find out! I too use a lint roller but wonder about how to do a good cleaning.

I also hand washed the largest wand with Woolite. I stuck the removable covers in the washing machine and washed on gentle cycle and it worked great.

How do you wash the covers for the smaller wands? The do not come off!

Immerse the wands, scrub, rinse, squeeze (and squeeze some more) and let dry

I am going to pickup two Bigger Wands sets before they are discontinued. Classic routine!!
My first set is bent up. I have learned to disassemble the wands now after use!! |

Good idea, it seems there will be NO MORE creative magic products, and they are shutting things down, itricks.com has an article saying they are done
