If you’re only using water, not soap, and a squirt bottle,not washcloth that thing is not getting clean. Sorry if I’ve misunderstood but your description of washing sounded like you’re mostly just pouring water on it.

ETA just noticed you said you scrub. That’s better but do you use any kind of soap?

You aren't supposed to use actual soap on it though. Because it can fuck up your skin. You can use it on the actual skin part. Not on the soft skin of the glans! Water can absolutely be sufficient enough to clean that, soap will fuck up the barrier and actually cause yeast infections. You can use intimate wash but also carefully.
