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? 

//Thanks

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.

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

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.

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.

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
