I don't clean it - but I would suspect a warm wash cloth could be used to wipe any stains on it or give it a quick refresher. There are leather fasteners on it so it could not be washed in a normal way.

Wipe it down with a used fabric softener sheet. Gets rid of any soap scum, water deposits, etc. Probably easier on the surface than toothpaste too.

Here's a protip on cleaning the stainless steel insert. When the insert starts to get discolored just pour in some white vinegar and let sit for about 5 minutes. Rinse with water and wipe dry. Your insert should be nice and shiny again.

I use Twinkle brass and copper cleaning kit. It's very easy to use and brings the kettle back to new condition. You can buy it from Amazon, too.

For my SS pans, I shake some baking soda onto the wet pan bottom. Put some soap on the wet dishcloth. Rub it out. Easy. Great technique for cleaning scum off outside of pans, glass casserole dishes, stainless sinks , plastic dishpans, and much more. Keep a shaker of baking soda near the sink!

soap and water or for tough deposits you can use the spray Oreck offers. Let it air dry. Don't scrub or you risk damaging the fine wires, if there are any.

Clean ALL leads of any debris, wipe with denatured alcohol. Wires, connectors everything. Check for cracks in insulation. If u do wrap this copper tape around it, be sure to ground the tape. Good luck.

Use any eraser, it works great. Prior to shooting apply a thin layer of vaseline, helps the dirt/grime/lead come wipe off

I wash mine with dish detergent. Run it under water to get it wet, then put a few drops of detergent on both sides, agitate the surface with your fingers. Afterwards, run it under the water again to rinse while squeezing the excess suds/soap out. When you're finished let it air dry.

Well, glad you asked. I love this snake. About 1/4 of the way from the pointy end (metal weight) there is a wire brush. I dip mine in Hoppe's #9 bore cleaner and pull it through. A bit hard at first but it will go through. It's wiped by the raggy portion of the snake as you pull. Now I put a little TW25 gun grease on the snake several inches behind the wire brush and pull it through again. Oiled clean as a wistle. Maybe 5 minutes at the most in time. I may do the bore clean several times but not the grease. Spend the rest of my time polishing the rest of the piece.

I use half vinegar,water and a tablespoon of dish soap. I use mine for cleaning ammo brass. After cleaning I put the brass in water with baking soda ,then rinse with clean water. Works great.

click the lever to make the lead come down. if you need to reload the lead, remove the eraser holder (pull up) and gently slide the new lead into the chamber. it should slide into the white tube. keep clicking the lever and you'll see the lead start to stick out from the tip. another way might be: click and hold down the lever and you gently push up the lead (but this might break the lead). by the way, to put back the eraser holder, make sure the "paper mate" thingy that sticks down is aligned with the cut in the clear chamber. another FYI: to bring up the eraser (when it's running low), rotate the colored part closest to the end of the eraser--it'll make the eraser come up, much like a deodorant. click the lever to make the lead come down. if you need to reload the lead, remove the eraser holder (pull up) and gently slide the new lead into the chamber. it should slide into the white tube. keep clicking the lever and you'll see the lead start to stick out from the tip. another way might be: click and hold down the lever and you gently push up the lead (but this might break the lead). by the way, to put back the eraser holder, make sure the "paper mate" thingy that sticks down is aligned with the cut in the clear chamber. another FYI: to bring up the eraser... » Read More click the lever to make the lead come down. if you need to reload the lead, remove the eraser holder (pull up) and gently slide the new lead into the chamber. it should slide into the white tube. keep clicking the lever and you'll see the lead start to stick out from the tip. another way might be: click and hold down the lever and you gently push up the lead (but this might break the lead). by the way, to put back the eraser holder, make sure the "paper mate" thingy that sticks down is aligned with the cut in the clear chamber. another FYI: to bring up the eraser (when it's running low), rotate the colored part closest to the end of the eraser--it'll make the eraser come up, much like a deodorant. « Show Less

I use a sonic jewelry cleaner. It's not too much of a hassle. U just throw it in and let the cleaner do its thing.

I scrub the tip with a toothbrush & rinse with rubbing alcohol. Works great.

We used a pipe cleaner and occasionally would soak it in a diluted bleach mixture. I believe there is a Nuby cleaning kit.
