I usually clean my "thing" in the shower with soap and water.

I agree with Jeffrevs. I too use Liquid Nitro.

I took the factory polish off of mine, so it picks up more crud than a shiny one.  I use Zep orange degreaser after every set.  Other than the "initial" break-in period, I don't notice any performance difference after cleaning.

I thought it was just me - so I've been cleaning mine less frequently too.
I feel better now.
