Cleaning you mousepad?

[Avve1000]

Heey!

As in title, how do you clean a Razer Gigantus for example? Is it ok to throw it in the washing machine or should you wash it for hand? Maybe not wash it at all? Pros and cons?

DAMP cloth with hot water and scrub in circles 

[flibberdipper]

I tend to just get my mousepads damp with water, get some dish soap on 'em and scrub it, and then scrub the soap back out after a little bit of sitting with a lighter water flow.

Ive put mine into a dish washing machine before.. seems to work fine for cloth and textile based ones.

Really? It worked well?

I've read that it cant be washed in the washing machine here but, there was no info about dish washer...
Think it will work, how do you dry it?

Well, the one I dishwashed was a rubber type material, and I just put it infront of a de-humidifer for a day, seemed to work well.

why not?

Buying some 10 bundle from Aliexpress is maybe a good idea.

For the cost of one "high end" label. OK, gigantus is worth about only 5 as large mousepads, not 10.

 

I like those - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32770234261.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.63bb31be70Dq0q&algo_pvid=641a83b9-45ad-4770-b70b-3e9ba940eae0&algo_expid=641a83b9-45ad-4770-b70b-3e9ba940eae0-6&btsid=9d6e0ce6-0ecc-47dc-8ff4-7409f5497f3f&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_9,searchweb201603_55

It can damage it and it's very unnecessary. Just use slightly warm water with like baby soap and  scrub it in circles with sponge and then rinse. 

[LauriHimself]

for me its a fine cloth and, i kid you not, windowcleaner. works wonders

[Scatology]

I use cheap MTG playmats so I just throw them in the washing machine. haha

 

EDIT: And they hold up !

No, do not put it in the washing machine. Every sing time I've done that the cloth separated from the foam base.

I got u a Asuna Catgirl - (Sword Art Online Mouse Pad) any recommendations for cleaning it?  It's memory foam and cloth.  I tried using warm soap and water in the past.  But I'm not sure if it's safe to clean it that way.  Any other recommendations
