Silicone is an amazing material for things like phone cases - it's soft, light, and pretty durable.
Meanwhile, it can collect dirt quickly, especially when it's soft - so you should clean your phone case regularly.
Here are a few tips on how to do it safely without damaging you phone case.
Soap and Water
Mix a small amount of mild dish soap with warm water in a bowl or sink.
Dip a soft cloth or sponge into the soapy water and wring it out so it's not dripping wet. Gently wipe the silicone phone case to remove dirt and grime.
Rinse the case with clean water to remove soap residue. Let it air dry completely before putting it back on your phone.
Rubbing Alcohol
Pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol onto a clean cloth or cotton ball.
Gently wipe the silicone case with the cloth or cotton ball to remove oils, germs, and dirt. Allow the case to air dry completely.
Baking Soda Paste
Mix a little baking soda with water to create a paste. Apply the paste to any stained areas on the silicone case.
Leave the paste on for a few minutes. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub the stained areas.
Rinse off the paste with clean water and let the case dry.
Baby Wipes
Grab a baby wipe (unscented ones are best). Wipe down the entire phone case to remove surface dirt and grime. Allow the case to air dry.
Vinegar Solution
Mix equal parts of water and white vinegar in a bowl. Dampen a cloth with the vinegar solution. Gently wipe the silicone case.
The vinegar smell will go away as it dries.
Magic Eraser
Wet a melamine foam sponge, often called a "magic eraser."
Gently rub the stained areas on the silicone case. Be cautious not to scrub too hard, as it can remove color or texture.
Wipe the case with a damp cloth to remove any eraser residue. Let the case air dry.
Conclusion
Remember to avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or acetone, as they can harm the silicone.
These cleaning methods should help you keep your phone case clean and looking good.
