Mines starting to look pretty dirty. Thought about throwing it in the washer but was told you can’t do that. What works best?

I use a product from shurhold companies called serious shine. It works well and leaves a protective coating for easier future cleanings. If really bad I might use warm soapy water first.
Just realized you meant a cloth motor cover. Sorry serious shine is good for vinyl and plexiglass but I’m not sure about cloth.

I haven't had to clean mine yet but when I do I'll put it on the motor and clean it with a soft brush and soapy water.
