Actually, cleaning your harness may pose the biggest risk. Never use any kind of chemicals (Febreeze, bleach, whatever), never put it in the washing machine or dryer, etc. If it needs to be cleaned, make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions to the letter.
The test done by... (uh... NHTSA? I should just go look it up, but I'm being lazy... someone help me out here... )... that tested the strength reduction of webbing in relation to how many times it was twisted, compared the twisted webbing to webbing soaked it either apple juice or cola (an also twisted? or maybe not...). If I remember correctly, the strength reduction was pretty similar among all (though decreasing with each additional twist), but overall under reasonable limits.
Yeah... I'm gonna go look it up. That was seriously incoherent. No more posting at 1 am for me (lol... who am I kidding... it's my favorite time to post!).
ETA: The test I was thinking of was done by IMMI... didn't read it though. Going to sleep instead. Am I remembering the results right?
