Because too many people have reported shrinkage when removing the curtains for cleaning I have, on one occasion as a test, cleaned the curtains in place.
I was using a Rug Doctor cleaner with the upholstery attachment to clean the cushion for the back yard. So, while I had it, I experimented cleaning the bathroom curtain.
The curtain is much cleaner, but not as clean as running it through the washer. But, for those of us that always camping in the dirt, this is more than adequate.
Next time I will wash them all in place.
BTW, I only used water, no soap.
