Now I have worked with guys who rarely/never wash their whistles...that's just nasty.
I rinse my whistles a lot too. I also put anti-bacterial soap on them and I have dipped them in Listerine. Just after a while they become chipped, they do not sound like they once did and build-up becomes harder to clean. But to keep them for two years without using another whistle. As Cleveland say, "That's just nasty."
