cleaning buggies

Hey there,
Well this is my 1st request for help, so I'm sorry if I gt the place wrong- TBH I couldn't find a natural place for a question like this!
Basically I have a buggy that is just a year old and just looks grubby. It is mostly black with sky blue piping and a matching strip down the middle. The blue bits just look awful. I have tried baby wipes and even scrubbed it all with soapy water (did the trick but then was back to usual state in a week ) I use it every day so really can't take it off the road to wash it every week.
My feeling of grubbiness is only made worse by the fact that the edge of the hood has bleached really completing that "must have" summer look!
Any tips out there would be gratefully received!

buy a new one?

erm... not sure really other than giving it a quick wipe down with a baby wipe every few days?
or get a seat liner?

dingding, I think you're justr going to have to put it in the washing machine. Although you say you use it every day, couldn't you wash it late afternoon / evening, then get it dry in the tumble dryer over night ready to assemble next morning.

HTH!

Thanks for all those suggestions! It seems to be hard wired onto the frame so I cant chuck it in the machine as I used to with the previous one. Annoying that I didn't htink of that when I bought it
I'll try the washing powder one tonight and failing that I'll be down the shops with baby in grubby buggy in the am for the upholstery cleaner!
