Use soap flakes for delicate wash. Get a net bag with ties and put the rope in it, then put rope in washer ona delicate wash, it will come out like new.

I usually just stand and curse alot. I think Treewarrior's advice might be a bit better than mine?

just dont put the rope straight in the machine as it might get caught between the drum and the door, then you will rquire a new rope and machine!

Apparentely rubbing butter on and leaving it for a bit softens and removes the resin. Read it on here a few times but havent tried it myself.

 

I wont tell you what I use

for on hands, but it might be messy to do on your rope you can use mayonnaise, I've not tried it as it stinks but apparently it works really well

buy some rope wash fluid

most arb suppliers sell it made by BEAL

i have a proper rope wash bag but pillow case or similar would be good
