Thread: How do you guys clean your packs?

As titled.

I had a bit of a shocker with a macpac weka which needed a repair. I shot a deer put the legs in and stained the inner with blood. Not badly but enough to notice.
I soaked it in cold water overnight, then I cleaned with light solution of handy andy and cold water and a stiff brush, then the hose.
Thinking it would be clean enough for repair, just with one stain set into it which i cant get out, I took it to macpac who sent it to their factory only for it to be sent back as being too dirty, which really annoyed me.

Anyone got any pro tips? Usually I’d just do as above and its always been fine but just wondering how everyone else does it.
