Teaching you how to cleverly clean the mouse pad
If you have a computer at home, you basically need to use the mouse pad. The mouse pad that has been used for a long time may contain stains and bacteria. So how should the mouse pad be cleaned?
Cleaning method for cloth mouse pads
Speaking of cloth mouse pads, the cloth here is actually not an ordinary cloth. Usually, the cloth mouse pads are arranged soft and smooth. The cleaning method can take a basin of clean water to soak the plastic pad for a while, then apply a small amount of cleaning, and gently brush it with an old toothbrush. It is not available. The toothbrush must also be made of old and soft bristles, otherwise it will easily damage the mouse pad. After repeated scrubbing, the plastic pad will become completely refreshed and will basically return to its original feel.
First add softer detergents such as dishwashing detergent or silk cleanser to warm water (you can also melt the detergents with hot water, and then dry them until 20-30℃, and then use them, and the temperature must not be high). Then put the mat inside and soak it for fifteen to 30 minutes. When the water turns a little darker, lay the mat flat on the bottom of the basin. Use your hands to rub back and forth with your hands. For the key parts that are often used, you can rub them more often, but do not rub them. After the surface stain is removed, rinse with a lot of clean water. Rinse all the remaining detergent in the mouse pad rubber. The standard is to use invisible bubbles. After cleaning, place the mat in a flat place and spread it to dry. Because the accumulated water in the rubber will flow out quickly, and there is only one layer of cloth on the surface of the mat, it will dry very quickly. Don't rush to expose or hang up in the sun.
Cleaning method for plastic mouse pads and synthetic mouse pads
Plastic material and synthetic mouse pads should be used by gamers more often, which can quickly move and accurately brake. Moreover, plastic mouse pads are often very smooth, relatively stable to control, and have high positioning accuracy. The cleaning method is generally very simple. If you think the mouse pad is dirty, you can rinse it directly with water and then place it in a cool place to dry. It is not recommended to place it in the sun.
Cleaning method for metal or glass mouse pads
We are generally rare in metal or glass mouse pads, and the cleaning method is simpler. Just rinse with water or gently wipe it with a brush or wipe it clean with a wet towel.
How to remove the odor of the mouse pad?
In the production process of mouse pad, due to the use of chemical products such as foam and adhesives, it is easy to produce odor. The foam rubber with anti-slip cushioning effect on the bottom layer of the mouse pad has a large amount of rubber micropores, so it is easy to absorb the odor on the mouse pad. The finished mouse pad is usually directly loaded into the packaging, with less air exchange between the packaging and outside, and is in a relatively sealed environment, causing players to smell the odor generated by the mouse pad during the production process when opening the packaging of the mouse pad. Generally speaking, the taste of domestic mouse pads is similar to artificial flavors, with a little aroma but pungent, while the Taiwan mouse pads are a taste similar to salted fish. Although it is a little softer, it also makes people feel unacceptable.
Generally speaking, most people will not use washing, exposure, etc. to newly purchased mouse pads, because it is easy to cause irreparable damage to the mouse pad itself. For the sake of safety, the purpose of removing odor can be achieved by using some materials that have strong adsorption to odor.
Use the characteristics of tea that easily absorbs external odor to remove mouse pad odor
In fact, the method of removing mouse pad odor is very simple. Take an appropriate amount of tea (about 10g to 25g), wrap it with a tissue paper with better breathability, and put it in the mouse package with the mouse pad (if the packaging has been discarded and damaged, you can use a badminton ball or other similar container). After sealing the packaging, let it stand for about half a month to basically absorb the odor of the mouse pad.
Charcoal and activated carbon can also have a better effect on odor removal
Since tea smell is a natural organic substance, using tea smell to remove the odor of the mouse pad will not cause damage to the mouse pad itself. If you don’t have the habit of drinking tea, you can buy some activated charcoal or dry charcoal to replace the tea leaves to absorb odor. However, when using charcoal products, you must pay attention to wrap them properly to avoid contaminating the mouse pad. In contrast, it is more safe to use tea leaves to remove odor.
