@Deputy - The way I clean mine -
I have several I rotate through.
Starting with a fresh set of about 5 pairs, the first ones I change out go into a bucket with RO water. I just throw them in there. When I'm on my last pair, I know I got about a week before I do a clean. And there are then 4 pairs in the RO bucket.
Once the last pair needs changing out, it too goes into the bucket. Once they are all in the bucket, I pour about 1/8th cup Clorox into the bucket and let it sit for about 2 days. (At this point I've been sockless for 2 days) And the 1/8th cup Clorox depends on how much water. Usually I've about 2-3 gallons in the bucket.
After 2 days sitting in bleach water, everything pretty much falls off. I blast them with the hose on shower spray, not blast spray! while kinda helping remove the gunk. It usually comes of really easy. I then let them sit to dry for a day or 2 before starting over. Usually end up going sockless for a week before putting in a fresh pair.
makes sense. the bleach water really helps to clean then.
