 Best way to clean cloth mousepad? Have a steel series cloth mousepad that I bought last year sometime and was wondering if anyone here knew a good way to clean some puppy hair and other wear and tear marks that it has accumulated over the past year. Is it safe to just throw in the sink and rub it down with soap or throw it in the washing machine..? i would think the dryer might ruin it though.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Re: Best way to clean cloth mousepad? Never used anything automated (dishwasher / dryer), so can't speak to that.
But usually one of those lint rollers + wiping it down with a damp papertowel works for me. If it's still dirty a drop of handsoap, worked in then rinsed off should be fine -- just allow it sufficient time to dry on a flat surface before using it.

I don't clean this shit. I would have this framed with just an Idra signature, let alone ret, MC and losira too. I'm jelly, man. cleaned my pad the way fomenta suggested with a touch of soap and hotwater after a lintrolling and it looks spotless, just letting this badboy dry out for a while. thanks  _________________

Which makes his signature more valuable and enjoyable to have, imo atleast  . Also hes got to be almost a millionaire at this point , I think he could care less. _________________

Re: Best way to clean cloth mousepad? Washing machine. As long as it's a QCK. You can do that about 15-20 times before it starts to peel and needs to be replaced.

Re: Best way to clean cloth mousepad? Are these fancy pants mouse pads? I thought most pads are like a buck or two, just buy another.

Curling isn't a problem, it's the cloth top that peels off that is. _________________icemaN: i was droppin wards like they were turds
