I was wondering does anyone know how to clean and wash the OEM car cover for my gs300? I got it as a gift from a friend and it's been a while since I got it. The outside is somewhat dirty and the inside a little. It came with instructions how to clean it but I lost it. Anyone please help...
THANKS!

My "California Car Cover" NOAH cover cleaning instruction states:
Cover may be washed using a Large automatic washer without an agitator found in most commericial
laundromats. DO NOT use machines with agitators - this can damage the cover and cause tears or
rips. A home type washer is NOT large enough to accommodate the cover and provide proper cleaning.
Use 2 cups of liquid "Fantastic All Purpose Cleaner" ONLY ! (Not soap or detergent) Wash cover using
the "Normal or PermanentPress" cycles in COLD or Warm water. DO NOT WASH IN HOT WATER !!
Run cover through two rinse cycles 0- it is most important that all the cleaner be removed in order to
preserve the cover's water resistance. AIR DRY the cover - DO NOT put cover in an automatic dryer (the
fabric can melt) DO NOT DRY CLEAN ! A fabric protector such as Scotch Guard may be used to restore
from slight fabric leakage, if desired. The cover may be air dryed on the vehicle or layed out on a large
carpet to Air dry...
