Washable-ness?

I know that the Lilypad arduinos are supposed to be washing machine safe, but has anyone tried washing them? If so, how did you do it and how many times did it make it through the wash?

Washability
Wash at your own risk - we do ;). We recommend washing projects by hand with a mild detergent. Drip dry. Make sure you remove your power supply first!

I believe washing was discussed at least once before. Have you tried searching...

I couldn't find that thread, probably cause I only looked in the textiles section and it was in the hardware section. Thanks so much!
