How to Clean Climbing Holds
**The best way to clean a climbing hold is to remove it from the wall and pressure wash it. There are many cost-effective electric pressure washers on the market as well as short pressure washer guns without the extender rod. All other methods are not ideal and can damage the climbing hold. Never use an acid. Yes, vinegar is an acid.**

How to Clean a Climbing Hold:
1. Apply the product to the climbing hold using a spray bottle, trigger sprayer, or submerge in a diluted solution.
2. Let the product work either by soaking the climbing holds in the solution or allowing the foam to sit on the hold.
3. A light scrubbing with a brush might be something extra you need, though that is rare.
4. Rinse well.
5. Allow drying.
What Not to Clean Your Climbing Holds With:
1. Alkaline products leave a residue, so avoid those.
2. Acetone melts climbing holds and is a hazardous acid to handle. Vinegars will have a similar effect as acetone and should not be used.
3. Do not use a dishwasher with the Heated Dry function. It is okay to use your dishwasher, though.
4. Sandblasting removes dirt but also removes texture.
