I tend to not mix my ink daubers/sponges with chalk. If using chalk, I will use chalklets puffs that are miniture cotton puff balls. I do not attempt to clean the puff balls.

I also tend not to use sponge daubers with my chalks but you can put them in a lingerie bag and toss them in the washer. The sponges will likely remain tinted but the color shouldn't come off.

I typically use Q-tips with my chalks and toss when I'm done for the day.

If you are using sponge to pick up chalk then u can try using mild soap. It's like washing eyeshadow sponge applicator. Some colours will remain on the sponge but u can still use the sponge.

I use the eyeshadow applicators (pkg of 20 for $1 at the Dollar store) and then just toss them when they start to fall apart. This way I have one applicator for each colour.

This is what I do too. Works like a charm. I still have some regular sized daubers for larger inking. And the eyeshadow applicators work great for inking the edges of smaller rounded corners/cuts.
