Cleaning my 5 Year Old Mousepad

[@asfasfas6446]

A little Tipp for anyone using a QCK Mouse pad. U can just use a normal Spunge or like i did a Spung on a stick. As long as the Spunge is not hard. After cleaning it properly, put the Mouse pad ont the end of a Towel and put the other site of the Towel above it so its fully rapped. After that Walk on the Mouse/Towel, that will help the Mousepad to leave the water into the Towel. This way its almost perfectly dry and ready to use after 2 or 4 minutes with a Dryer. I read this tipp in a Forum post and it works wonders. Especially after cleaning a mouse pad u can mostly not use it instandly. This way u can!

[@zmirko97]

Fun fact on the walking on mousepad/towel. I've done something crazy but it works perfectly, Wrap the mouse pad into a towel and fold it in half. Yes it is okay to do it and sit on it wrapped in the towel. It's possible that your butt might get wet after the process but your body will produce the heat that will make the towel soak all the water from the mousepad and you will dry it in the time of 10 to 15 min. Driers aren't the best option due to the material but this is another tip I found and it works magick for me!

[@ImBolas]

Don't clean a mousepad like this, put a little water in a bath tub (or a sink, if you have a small pad) put your mousepad in and let it soak. After 2-5 minutes of soaking, pour soap, or powder over it, and use the SOFT side of a new and clean sponge, to lightly rub the soap or powder in. You dont want to wash the back of the mousepad, if its rubber, because it might make it slide around your table. And then wash it off, and dry with a towel, and put/hang it to dry, as he said, in shade, or out of sunlight. And let it dry, done.

I've been watching several videos on how to clean mousepads.. just to make sure I've a good sample of tips and methods.. and this guy comes and does the complete opposite of what all the other videos recommended: 1- Bended the mousepad; 2- scrubbed with the green (rougher) side of the sponge; 3- left it to dry directly into the sun If only he had used hot water to wash it... would've BINGO-ed on things you shouldnt do to wash your mousepad...

[@glennpatrickdomingo584]

Here's what I use 1. Dish washing Liquid 2. Foam or Sponge I just put some dish washing liquid on my mouse mat and light scrub it using the foam or sponge so I won't damage the texture of the mouse mat and rinse. Air drying it on any flat surface sometimes on my bed while it's on top of a thick blanket and make the fan steady, pointing at the mouse mat for about 2-3 hrs..

[@stevethea5250]

I wash mine every 2 weeks, surprisingly improves the sensor tracking of my mouse for FPS games

[@xChase3800x]

How do you wash yours? I wanna wash mine but scared to make it less smokth

[@_Raven_]

@@xChase3800x I gave mine a hot shower and used dish washing liquid. Just massaged it with my hands and most of the grease and debris just came away. Wasn't the most thorough job, but I only spent about 5 minutes doing it. You'd probably get better results with more time and maybe a cloth or something. But my tracking is back to normal and that's all I really care about

[@_Raven_]

I was looting on Tarkov when I noticed it. Mouse would get caught up on the dirtiest part of the pad and wouldn't track properly. Night and day now that I've given it a scrub

Mousepad drenched in sweat for 5 years: Kill me... Raff... Kill meeeeeee *That stain looks suspicious*

[@tommy_0811]

It's better to use dishwashing liquid because it's for removing the grease and just use a brand new sponge and don't use the rough surface. Using the rough surface can damage the surface of your mousepad.

[@_Raven_]

I used a healthy serving of Fairy Liquid and gave it a hot shower. I can testify that this is great advice

[@Jacksirrom]

the green side of the sponge is a lot harder and more likely to scratch than they plain sponge side. I remember adding brush marks to my ipod back in the day with that side of the sponge.

[@josephsullan1603]

i recommend using shampoo and baking soda while scrubbing it with the soft side of the sponge works imo

[@anoniwful]

where did you buy your desk lights? ive been looking for the something like that for quite sometime now

[@lust5558]

What I do is... Use Zonrox colorsafe and let it marinade for a few minutes then brush the mouse mat with a soft bristle brush then rinse it, and if I feel extra fancy,finish it with downy. Keep up the great content guys! Much love

[@jcAnbu13]

Dead skin cells, dust, oils, pet hair, food crumbs you name it, it's there. When I used a cloth mousepad in the past I would clean it once a month. Chuck it in the tub or sink then wash it with dish soap, scrubbed it using a soft sponge, rinse and repeat. I'd let it dry on a flat surface overnight and then it's good as new. Changed my mousepad at the beginning of the year though, I currently use the endgame gear cordura mousepad. I only use a damp cloth to clean it up now, no more soap.

[@carltaruc1463]

Natatanggal pa po ba yung dead skins cells na yan sa mousepad? (Yung parang namumuti na part). Tried using wet wipes pero ayaw talagang mawala. 1 week pa lang sakin yung mousepad :3

[@daryl2752]

I wash mine every 1-2 months. though minimal use lang mousepad ko for work but it gets really dirty overtime. I usually wash it on a bathtub with joy or any dishwashing liquid. Joy works better imo and gets it really clean. Very light brushing might be needed, just make sure to not ruin the smooth texture of the mousepad

[@jomarigonzales3295]

[@wott2599]

how about a rgb mousepad?

[@stevethea5250]

go Warm water is the best,hot water is bad and coldwater doesnt remove stains the best. Thats what ive learned over years and always use soft side of the sponge and dish liquid(powders are not good cause it could damage it) 🔥 ??

[@AQWHansgab0103]

Nice work! How about for an rgb mousepad though?

[@M4CHINE69]

You can actually do the same thing submerge the mousepad in water just make sure you so not submerge the electronics box usually at the top or side. It's a black rectangler thing where a cable plugs into. I just hold it up out of the water and soak the rest of the mousepad in water

Nooo. 🥺☹️ Bakit sir ganyan. Haha. Ganito sir. Buy an artisan mousepad and it will change your life. It's low maintenance compared to what you have. Gaming mousepads and anything black kita agad dumi e. This is important kasi part siya ng hygiene (a dirty desk can cause acnes and allergies). To prevent future accumulating dirt..buy a roller or a brush and place it on your desk so whenever you have a mess or eat..it wont leave there. Also you shouldn't bend it like that or labhan na parang damit haha. Dapat flat lang pag wash (nakapit ang mousepad sa bathroom walls then you can spray it with your shower head) and its enough.. run with a sponge and squeeze till mawala dirt.. babad sa bathtub with Washing powder! (Not detergent powder kaya natanggal yung mga labels niyo) or sa flat na shower room for 30minutes to 1 hour. This made me cringe a little ksi nilabhan niyo po sa labas kasi kakapit mga elements like soil. Dapat sa loob niyo po dinry (kasi magddetoriate or magmemelt rubber sa sun) tapos dont dry it outside.. kelangan neutral or fan dry lang like loob ng kwarto or cr..but hey, you don't have anyone to help you film or advice on this so I get it.
