What do you use to clean the wood or bamboo needle. Occasionally they will show signs of usage, is a mild dish soap okay, just plain water?

I just use a lightly damp cloth, rub them down and dry them right away. My never get "dirty" because I always wash my hands before using my needles. Hope this helps.

I usually use plain water to clean my jewelry. I haven't tried dish detergent,

I just use a small amount of dish soap and hot water. If it needs it I will soak overnight and use a small plastic bristle brush. With rinsing after each use I hardly find the need for anything else.

I just use soap and water. I was it out right away and make sure it dries completely. I'm sure some kind of cleaning solution would work hopefully...

No issues with soap here. We use 7th generation dish soap. I did notice that one of them is a bit stained from spaghetti sauce.

There was a light colored finish on the utensils but after a trip or two through the dishwasher it was gone. Use light oil to replenish moisture after putting in dishwasher. As with any wooden utensil, dishwasher usage is not preferred over hand washing because the bamboo can retain odors and the high temp dry cycle can shorten the woods lifespan. We use ours all the time and with a little care expect them to last for years.

I would use a gentle dish soap or maybe a spray household cleaner if they're really grimy. Just don't let any liquid run down inside!

What did you clean in it?Did you try cleaning with a steal wool without soap on it. A fine grade. Can get it at any hardware store. Use dawn liquid dish soap.will have to scrub to remove black marks.The pot should be fine to use since you used dishwasher soap witch is used all the time for cleaning dishes you eat on.I have canning pots that change color because of chemical reactions and are fine just discolored.

This has not been an issue for me, sorry. But you might try a rinse aid in the cycle as well as regular soap; this makes a big difference in how clean the dishes are at the end of the cycle.

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.

The recommended way is just water, you can add vinegar if you want or very mild soap, you should not put any heavy soap or solution, it will clog it.

Swish the bristles in warm water which has mild soap, a bit of white vinegar, and a drop of tea tree oil. The vinegar and tea tree oil will help to fend off any bacteria build-up. Do not immerse the wood in the water... it will cause mildew and when the brush dries it might retain a strange odor. After you rinse the bristles, shake out the brush over the sink to remove the excess water. As a final step to speed the drying, use an absorbant towel to dry the bristles even more. Hang the brush to dry.

I use soap and it seems to be ok. However, I did have a spot that was sticking so I added a little oil to that spot and re-seasoned it. It seemed to work.

I would use warm water or maybe some Woolite to clean the inside. That would be gentle enough. If you are referring to the outside, warm soapy water with a soft cloth should be ok

hot water no soap. scrub brush (I use a chainmail scrubber rag) then wipe it down with a paper towel with cooking oil on it to keep up with the "seasoning".
