    Anyone know how I can stop my machine getting slimy?
    The door and seal area get horribly gunky and I can’t get the slime off the seal.
    Also the drain pipe work gets all gunked up and starts to block.

    I do most my washes at 30 with a non bio liquid and some of my washes at 60. Every now and then I do an empty 60 wash with bio powder as someone on here said it was a good idea!

    Any suggestions how to clean my machine greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi smudge,

    This article is probably the best place to start and also a read of this one about mould and slime.

    Hi K,

    Thanks for that link, it looks quite straightforward so might go and do it now!

    Stop using Non Bio Liquid, switch to powder, stop washing at 30 on a regular basis, the hotter the better.

    Use 90 when doing a maintenance wash using Bi carb or bleach…..

    I have this conversation with every customer I see
