Washing a p&t

My nearly new p&t sport came today but smells of fags.
How do I get the covers off to wash?
Thanks

You can get all the covers off to wash, if you look very closely at the frame you will see that the covers are all fastened to the frame with tiny screws/nuts. These can all be removed (and kept somewhere safe as there are lots of them and they are very easy to lose!). The frame will need to be taken apart to get some of the covers off, but again this is all held together with nuts and bolts. I have taken all my covers off to wash in the past, it is a faff to get them off but worth it to get them clean again. Just a word of warning, don't soak the seat unit when cleaning as it is stuffed with foam pads which absorb all the water. I soaked mine and it took a month of leaving it in the airing cupboard and taking it out reglularly to squeeze the excess water out before it was dry......

You could always wait for a warm day then take it outside and scrub it down?

Febreeze could be your friend in the meantime??

Mine is covered in, well covers so I need to clean it as little as possible.

I think the tyres could do with some air how much do you put in? When do I put slime in before or after inflating?
