CLEANING YOUR GO-KOT ®
Let's face it, your outdoor gear isn't meant to stay clean. Camping, hiking, backpacking, kayaking, horseback riding, or anything other outdoor activity is going to coat your gear in dirt and mud.
The best outdoor gear isn't the gear that doesn't get dirty, it's the gear that is easy to clean.
Luckily, cleaning your GO-KOT® couldn't be more simple!
Most dirt can be wiped off with a damp wash cloth.
For tough grass or mud stains, use a damp wash cloth and a mild soap, like Dawn.
Do not place the soap directly on to the GO-KOT®.
Instead, mix the soap with water in bowl or bucket and dip the washcloth into the soapy water, and wring out 70% of the water before scrubbing.
If it is not completely clean after the first wipe down, just wipe it down a second time and you should be good to go! If needed, use cold water setting on washing machine, do not use a dryer.
Always let your GO-KOT® air dry after cleaning, and do not store until it is completely dry. If your cot gets soaked on your adventure, make sure to set it back up once you get home so it can dry out completely.
Once your GO-KOT® is all clean and dry, you will be ready for your next adventure!
NOTE: If your cot squeaks, remove the side poles rub some bar soap, not liquid soap, on them.
