Sterling Wicked Good Rope Wash reviews and deals for sale

Clean ropes are happy ropes

I just tried this on a recommendation from a climbing partner. So simple. so effective. My rope was starting to give everyone the "black hands," and it was time for a wash. Ordered a few packets of this (for future washes), daisy my rope, throw it in the front loader on a delicate cycle, and voila! Clean rope! Looks like new, lay it out to dry a few days and you're ready for cragging.… read more

Good Stuff

So I have a Sterling BiAthlon Pro Bi-Patterned 10.1mm rope. It's a true work horse of a rope. After a full summer of constant use my work horse of a rope was no longer looking like a bi-patterned rope and more like a darker single color rope. So it was clearly time for a wash and it is impressive the amount of dirt that came out of the rope. To wash I opted for a bath tub… read more wash over a front loader washing machine (since I don't have one). Step One: I filled my bathtub with about 10 or so gallons of warm water (directions call for 4 gallons but due to bathtub size that was no water) and submeged the rope in there to soak for about 30 mintues. Then with my hands I "hand washed" the rope for around 4-6 minutes. Then drained the water out of the tub. Step Two: I repated with with warm water for a second time. But only hand washed (3-4 minutes) after soaking (20 minutes). Drained water Steps Three: Fill tub again with same amount of water but cold. The agitate for 2-3 minutes. Drain water. Step Four - However Many You Want: Repeat Step Three. It took me about 5 cycles of cold water to get the remaining dirt out. Last Step: Dry. I hung my rope on a clothing rack in our bedroom with no direct UV light exposure. Shoot me an email anytime you have questions! Jared D. Expert Gearhead 801.736.4336 jdowns@backcountry.com
