Hey everybody! Alright this is kind of a weird question and I hope I don't gross anyone out. I got a shammy for Christmas (LOVE IT) and I've been using it for about the past 3 monthes maybe 4 times a week. I ring it out as best I can, and store it (in the orginally little plastic tube) damp like the package says. However, lately it has been smelling kind of funny. Are you supposed to wash them? I have never washed mine, never thought I had too, but then it started smelling. It smelled when I first got it, and it's pretty much the same odor only a little stronger. Thanx!

p.s. Hope that's not to gross, of a weird question.
I used to use these all the time when diving. I never put it back into the little plastic thing.. just let it dry out between. It didn't get too stinky, but I did rinse it out as well. When it dries it gets really stiff.. You need to put it in the water for awhile to slowly absorb a bit of water, then it works fine..
I think it's just like a really thin sponge..
