I've been hoping I could find a relatively easy way to sterilise,

reckons it's possible to do all this with just soap, hot water and a
toothbrush (it's almost as easy as washing your hands).

The guy plausibly (I thought) explains his method in a video:

Could I please ask the 'experts' here in this newsgroup if they think
this is a good idea... or not?

An autoclave will do the job.

That would certainly kill any virus contamination, and I found this
video which suggests the N45 mask would still remain viable.

(Would a pressure cooker work? Can't think why not.)

Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that... it's so promising.



Maybe because you are too ****ing dumb.
