If I had to clean it, I think I would take it to a car wash and spray it with the power pressure washer. If it smells I would make a sollution of vinegar and water and hand scrub it first. Vinegar would help to neutralize any oders and the smell will disapate. It is a natural odor killer. I wouldn't use anything but the soap at the car wash and make sure you rinse it throughly.

I think you are supposed to "replace" it when it gets badly soiled.
