ok get some fairy liquid, and put some on a scrubber and put ur board on ur bath and get some water and scrub all the griptape. when u cleaned it it'll dry and cus u used fairy liquid the tape will have grip. It works, belive me.

If its just mud on your grip, wait till its dry and get a stiff brush and brush it off. If its just slightly dirty, don't worry about it, its not going to stay clean anyway. :)

Yes, I clean mine but I've found that some tapes don't clean up well at all. The best I've found so far is the Heskins tape http://www.heskins.c...rd-griptape.htm .
