OK,OK - it was July 2019.....
Because - my First Gear hi-viz jacket was
not so hi-viz any longer....
I removed these 5, D-30 pads.....
And placed the jacket in the bathtub with some nice Persil (German detergent - or at least it was in the 1950's -)
Cool water, and messed it about with my hands. Let it sit for a few hours - then went at it with a large, fairly soft nylon brush and gave it a gentle scrub....and a hand agitation until my knees gave out.
Good rinse in the tub then hung it outside on a warm day under a patio umbrella.
It came out pretty nice!

PS: dang, it''s coming up time to wash it again,
and do the valves on both scoots
and check the darned PSI in the tires. I'd rather do the valves than mess down there on the floor with the air-pump and air pens!
PPS: I like this jacket so much I kept an eye out for this d/c'd jacket to pop up on the internet. One with a crazy low price was on a hanger at my dealer's - and I bought it while trying not to look too interested!
