Come on forum! Show me your collective wisdom....

Shall I wash my Frank Thomas textile jacket? It's filthy and stinks pretty bad.

The instructions on the label specifically say 'Do not machine wash' and 'Wash only with sponge and soapy water'.

I can't be arsed to ponce about with a sponge, so I'm seriously considering slinging it in the machine with some Nikwax Tech Wash (I'll take all the liners and armour out first).

So what shall I do?.....
