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.

When you live something in the trunk and during the day the temperature rise very hot, anything that is wet is going to smell, so try to leave your car under a roof so the sun do not gets it.
I have a Sammy since 4 years ago and it has never smell, but I wash it while I am at the showers after swimming.
Nothing happends to a Sammy if you wash it, except that may be will last longer, as you are not going to throw it away because it gets black dots for fungi.
