Preface: This article covers a few methods to cleaning your honeycomb bed

Pressure Washers: Do not use a narrow nozzle or get too close to the honeycomb with a pressure washer. Use the wide spray angle to avoid damaging the honeycomb and keep the pressure washer far enough away.

Be sure to wear proper PPE like Gloves and Safety Goggles while cleaning your honeycomb. Follow the guidelines on the cleaner(s) you plan to use.

Method 1

Degreaser and light pressure wash

Method 2

Oven Cleaner and hose pipe. This is for Nova all-steel beds with no coatings. Oven cleaner should not be used on beds with colored or coated rulers or other components.
