How to Clean Biothane Dog Gear – Collars, Leashes & More
Collars, Leashes, and More — Made Easy
One of the biggest perks of biothane dog gear? It’s ridiculously easy to clean. No soaking, no scrubbing, and no lingering stink. Whether your dog rolled in mud, swam in a lake, or just lived their best messy life — cleaning your gear takes less than a minute.
Here’s exactly how to do it.
Daily or Light Cleaning
What you need:
- A damp cloth or paper towel
- Mild dish soap (optional)
How to clean:
- Wipe down the collar or leash with a damp cloth.
- For stubborn dirt, add a tiny bit of dish soap.
- Rinse with clean water.
- Pat dry or air dry — that’s it.
Pro tip: Keep a towel and small bottle of soap in your car for post-hike wipe-downs.
Deep Cleaning After Big Adventures
If your gear has been through mud, sand, saltwater, or anything extra messy:
What you need:
- A bowl or sink of warm water
- Mild dish soap
- A soft brush or toothbrush
How to clean:
- Soak the gear in warm, soapy water for 5–10 minutes.
- Gently scrub dirty spots with the brush.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Dry with a towel or let it air dry.
Biothane doesn’t absorb water, so it dries fast and never gets soggy.
What Not to Do
🚫 Don’t use harsh chemicals or bleach — it can break down the protective coating.
🚫 Don’t throw it in the washing machine — hand washing is faster and better.
🚫 Don’t leave hardware soaking for hours — rinse and dry to keep it in good shape.
Keeping Hardware Clean
To extend the life of snaps, D-rings, or buckles:
- Rinse off any sand, mud, or salt
- Wipe dry if soaked
- Occasionally check for buildup or grime in crevices
- If needed, a dab of olive oil or WD-40 on metal parts (avoiding the Biothane) helps restore function
Why Biothane Makes Dog Life Easier
Unlike nylon or leather, Biothane doesn’t absorb smells, moisture, or bacteria. That means:
🐾 No more stinky collars
🧽 Easy cleanup after hikes, swims, and muddy days
💧 Always dries fast — even in the backseat or by the door
✨ Looks brand new after months of use
