    How do I clean dry salt off of plastic?
    Community Answer
    You should be able to just take a mild soap and water mixture. If it's really stuck on there, use a soft bristle brush that's coarser than a toothbrush but not as coarse as a barbecue brush, as those will scratch most plastics.

    Hot water and dish detergent. Shake real well and let sit a few minutes. Empty solution and rinse with cold water. Place in a dish drain until dripped dry.
