Cleaning a nylon halter can be fairly easy and there are several methods you can choose from. First, you can place the halter in an old pillow case and put it through your washing machine. The pillow case will help keep the metal parts from damaging the washer.
Secondly you can soak the halter in a bucket of warm water and horse shampoo then remove it and scrub it with a medium stiff horse brush or dish brush then rinse it thoroughly and hang it out to dry in the sun.
If the halter is very dirty you may need to wash it several times before it will come clean and even then deep stains may not come out completely.
