[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

Please support my DIYGEEK, If you are looking to buy an Apple AirPod, please use my link below: ✅ ✅ 👉 amzn.to/3qzETIi Thanks!

[@CastIronGinger]

Thanks for the video, I’ve had my airpods go through the wash probably 5 times and they still do their job, yeah the quality isn’t as good as brand new bc of the fact but still, highly resilient!

[@EditorKalandr__]

It is not anything nasty. It is just simply Iron that gets attracted to magnets

[@claytonkane7588]

Me too

[@christos2594]

How you get it clean man i swear I took them first day to work and the got dirty with the dust

[@abhinavkumar9905]

​@@christos2594you got information of cleaning earpods?

[@sehvo4915]

@@christos2594i need tips too, im welder and i cant get my case clean its so full off metal

[@hieutran9998]

@@christos2594I think you just cannot. They are just being into the plastic material when you close the lid many times.

[@sanrasuzumaki942]

21:37 that wasn't hair in there, it was a mesh that I think you might have poke out with the toothpick earlier 😉, thanks for the video, very informative 😀.

[@joseemanuelfilipczak5447]

Something that really helps getting that tough dirt is using nail polish remover. Beware tho since it is highly corrosive and can affect the paint of ur airpods.

[@snorttroll4379]

Try isopropanol

[@huhuh980]

Before wet cleaning it dry clean it loosen all the dirt then you can wet clean them plus On the wet cleaning your brush won’t get gunk on it so fast and easily

[@fingimygig]

The muck on the Mike was actually the the fine wire grill destroyed by the tooth pick, looked like hair but was actually wire from the ex mesh.

[@velmurugan4443]

This is so useful.. my AirPods are back to sound like day 1

[@jakubcz62626]

Thank you so much! My left AirPod wasn’t working but now it is

[@steveguaico1024]

Just got some hand me down pods, thanks for the video! 🙏🙏

[@Ftbleditz166]

Bro same 😂

[@vincestyles1030]

Me too that’s why I’m trying to figure out how to clean them thoroughly

[@kaylagonzalez8506]

The gray thing by the mic is actually like a layer of something to help protect it. It isn’t hair lol mine did the same exact thing.

[@kovanova]

Yup me too smh lowkey made it worse by going as hard as he did on the mic..

[@subroot2352]

Bro your airpods are nasty! But so satisfying to watch the before and after LOL

[@fearso2877]

Good that he cleans it lol. There are other people who don’t even care, now that’s even more nasty

[@WheeledHamster]

@@fearso2877 Who the hell would put something that nasty in their ears or even touch it with their hands, that's gross as hell.

[@peytoncorrea4975]

Lmao you should see mine I weld with them in they black😂

[@peytoncorrea4975]

Doesn’t help that metal dust particles stick to the magnets

[@pxppy150]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@iboss8904]

Thank you for the demonstration! And yes I completely understand what you said there. 17:32

[@andrewn176]

Wow thats one dirty airpod. Amazing difference before and after.

[@dorzee_aggs]

23:50 “when it’s clean you should see white like that” bro it’s not clean it’s just that your mesh that protects the opening is messed up and it’s gone. It’s usually black mesh in normal like the other openings.

[@BigVarii]

Not hair but more of like a mesh wire type thing for the speakers/mic

[@thepunisher1970]

Thank you for your video and for the time you took to share it, I would like to give you a note if you allow me, it is not good to blow electrical devices with your mouth, the air you blow comes out with particles of saliva with salt and that is not good, they are corroded by salt. Thanks again for your video.

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

@John Hoffman Hi John, great point about the salt in saliva causing corrosion. You got me thinking... and I think a Ear Wax bulb aspirator like this would work: amzn.to/3nnFScr What do you think?

[@Adoomie]

Does rubbing alcohol work?

[@WheeledHamster]

How do you get rid of those magnetic dust?

[@andrewrealestate5288]

You can not remove those magnetic dusts. Some are already scratched into the plastic from the cover rubbing over and over

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

It is scratched into the plastic, if you insist on removing, probably go with 400 grit sandpaper? Kind of risky though of sanding off too much plastic. Becareful!

[@blueeberry]

i needed this

[@ericksalazar5130]

I got a question I got alcohol but it's not a spray one it's like when you pour. what do I do about that?

[@tooning_in]

Honestly I think it’ll still work if you just pour the alcohol onto your toothbrush. Though it may be more efficient to spray the AirPods/airpod case with the alcohol, I don’t think it’s absolutely needed.

[@edpxo8377]

PLEASE make this whole video again but as ASMR! It was so calming hearing all the sounds from cleaning and especially the brush movements against the AirPods.

[@DYZYLink]

Weird ass dude

[@loganff8839]

Mano sem querer tirei a telinha de proteção da onde sai o som do meu aql Mine tela eu coloquei de volta mais ser que eu danifiquei algo ou corre o risco dela sair no meu ouvido dps de solta ?

[@elinbird00]

I use my airpods all day cause u listen to Billie eilish all day and every day ;) (besides when I’m in school) ty for this video

[@JDI_4]

This couldn't be more useful

[@doahyahya2008]

Doesn't they break by the alcohol? Is it even good to do it with alcohol??

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

We use 65% proof alcohol (rubbing / cleaning alcohol). Alcohol at this strength does not break the airpods (I have clean my airpods like this about once per month).

[@snorttroll4379]

Isopropanol. The ignorants call it alcohol or rubbing alcohol. U definitely do not use ethanol

[@mozear8219]

I think those hairs oj the microphone were not hairs but that was a mesh grill for the miscrophone

[@ppwlsn99]

Good 👍🏼 I will try it. Thank you

[@nuracanari1139]

Excellent cleaning video, very helpful

[@lohitkumarmeesala8568]

Can i use another thing instead of alcohol

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

You can use MULTI PURPOSE CLEANER or GLASS CLEANER (like Windex) but I hate they way the smell

[@TheTrueAegonTargaryen]

This is why I clean my AirPods like 4 times a day

[@ZillaUprising-um9wk]

Very helpful thanks

[@Blake_M.]

Man this works great thx!

[@sylvainalain6637]

I had some jeans stain on the case and I used some Vim with a some toilet paper and it removed it all in 2-3 wipes :)

[@Ishinok3do]

my internet its so bad you have tips ?

[@ezbandscustomwristbands2380]

The apple airpods are all white and they are very hard to keep 100% clean

[@msann4999]

This video makes so much sense! Thank you sir!

[@Andy3x]

Mine were clean clean and somehow ended in the washer and now they are super dirty and nasty looking, nothing worked so hopefully this works

[@nolimitjohn5515]

Great video

[@leonarddevine8446]

Great job 👍👍

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

Thanks 👍

[@AliAdel883]

can i use water

[@Kriszhaabajnok]

What type of alcohol do u use?

[@Kriszhaabajnok]

Ethanol?

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

Just regular 70% alcohol, the ones we used to clean everything during Covid.

[@snorttroll4379]

No. The ignorants say alcohol but mean isopropanol

[@snorttroll4379]

There is water in ethanol

[@a1timeer631]

I wonder how the hair got into the airpods?

[@nikitapandey8986]

what can be used instead of alcohol

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

Less strong probably vinegar and water. More strong probably (acetone) nail polish remover.

[@AbbasAhmadi-g7o]

did they work?

[@secerts8]

I don't think scubing the black stuff with a razor going to clean it, because that part is magnet and I think you need different tool to get rid of dark stuff with a magnet

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

You are smarter than me! :-) I think you are right, thanks for the suggestion!

[@susannahhall5731]

The black stuff is metal fragments like iron that can come from dirt and debri which adheres to the magnet it’s a pain to remove 😕

[@vovcv]

Thanks, that helped!

[@Milloou]

sie haben so lange gelitten und am Ende ist das Ergebnis null, ich habe nie verstanden, warum Sie es gezeigt haben.Ich werde diese schwarzen Flecken in 3 Minuten mit einem speziellen Werkzeug entfernen, ich mache seit mehr als 4 Jahren Luftpods sauber, aber auf jeden Fall danke ich Ihnen für Ihre Arbeit

[@yamamamama6219]

I tried all methods including yours and it’s still stained 😂.. Why the magnetic dust not cleaned? Doesn’t work

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

I go through 1 set of airpods every year! They are disposables 🤣. Buy a new one: amzn.to/3uPKmMS

[@PetarGriffin-r9f]

Not me cleaning silently with him doing it aswell💀🤣

[@smswaiver364]

I did not know it is safe to spray alcohol to the apple airpods?!? Is it?

[@snorttroll4379]

Kaboom. Its isoprooanol or 2 propane diol. It is not alcohol in the everyday sense or ethanol.

[@kylenickelson8433]

Shout out to Katy TX I’m just outside of Magnolia 😁

[@jameswinspear996]

I put mine in soap and water They are clean but no longer work 😂

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

I had older airpods that I accidentally washed through the washing machine! I put them in rice to dry for about 1 week and they worked!!!

[@snorttroll4379]

Flood wt electronics with isopropanol to displace the water

[@Monte_1219]

I haven’t cleaned mine in 2 yrs

[@ACEKING26]

well done super clean

[@jenson_official]

my airpods went through the wash 5 times and still worked all i had to do is pair them with my iphone and play high frequency tones

[@BlazeX_08]

thanks

[@Gcarrington820]

I bet seafoam can unstain the case

[@linkbombchu168]

I came here to see how you can get the black part off. Seems you just gotta scrape it with a razor blade...

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

The dust/dirt are stuck good into the plastic because of the opening closing friction. No way to simply get them off, have to use razor blade or sand paper.

[@julianporter5]

If that were true how comes the dirt is only round the magnets?

[@brianmaldonado8383]

Give it a couple of spert had me dead

[@mounirdarwiche6075]

These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. kzbin.infoUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.

[@1mmaD1va]

This works but the outside of my earphone is dirty can u please help🥲

[@DIYGEEKTEXAS]

The airpods are made of plastic, I would just use Windex (glass cleaner) to clean the outside plastic surfaces.

What alcohol do you use

Rubbing alcohol. I think 60% alcohol. I usually buy them from dollar stores.
