How do you wash it? I would imagine you can't get the salt wet.

You can get a wet rag with soap and just wipe the top piece, as that's the only place you put your mouth anyway. If you really want to, you can get a q-tip to wipe the inside spout, but it's really not necessary.

I did the standard wash with no detergent. Maybe too much detergent is being used? I had no problems with repelling water at all.

i haven't either. i just handwash it carefully. i'm assuming at some point it will probably get wet inside, sustain damage, possibly become unusable?

We have soaked it w/ soapy water for about an hour and then hand wash it with a soft cloth and some soap. We dry the outside of it with a dry soft cloth and flip it over to air dry it on a rack. It seems to work fine.

I believe the instructions said to just soak it in warm water and soap. That's what I did at least. Hang it up to dry completely before storing it again.

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.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with an uncleanable pan. I've tried everything said below, baking soda, laundry detergent, rock salt, boiling water in it and nothing seems to work. I sort of hate this pan :(

To clean the salt rocks you can use a damp paper towel and just use it to wipe the rocks. It is recomended to use water. You don't want to soak the rocks because the salt can melt.

I'd use hot, soapy water, perhaps letting it soak for awhile to loosen it from the plastic, before scrubbing it down, followed by hosing it out to rinse. Let it sit outside long enough for it to dry thoroughly.

Yes, it can be used in salt water. I would definitely rinse it off before you store it after using it in salt water, but you should be fine.

I put in a couple drops of dish soap and then fill it with hot water. Swish it really good, then make sure to rinse it very well. Be sure to let it dry completely before refilling it.

I would just soak it in the bathtub with some tide or woolite and let it sit for a little while, swish it around a little ... and rinse it well, and let it dry outside. Choose a nice, sunny day!

I wash it with mild soap before and after use, and let it dry with air. So far everything is OK

Apparently u have to drain it. Depending on how high the salt content is I just up the chlorine production to use more salt. Hope that helps,
