The AirPods have been the latest revelation from the Cupertino company, headphones that have attracted attention due to their total absence of cables and the minimalist design of the EarPods. However, the fact that they are basically made of plastic and glue makes us hesitate to keep them clean. We are going to give a brief review of the cleaning techniques that will allow you to always have your AirPods ready. Although, as is always said, the cleanest is not the cleanest, but the least dirty, so your care will be relevant when it comes to keeping them ready.
To avoid possible jams or malfunctions, it is logical that we must carry out constant maintenance as far as cleaning is concerned.
Use a cloth of microfibre To eliminate any type of exterior excess or possible stains is the first option, a cloth that is fine and does not shed cotton filaments is the key, such as the one they give us when we buy a MacBook and that helps us to clean the screen. Important that it does not give off "lint" that can adhere to the open parts.
It is also important that do not use large amounts of waterWe should not use sanitizing elements, with normal alcohol and the like. As you well know, glue is a fundamental tool of these headphones, and alcohol, whether isopropyl or not, it will damage the resistance of it. In addition, Apple has not made any reference to its resistance to water, so wetting the cloth like a wipe will be the maximum that we should expose our headphones to water.
Patience It will be the third key point, use swabs, toothpicks and elements that are delicate as well as fine, that allow us to rummage through the "entrances" of our AirPods without the stability of the piece running any type of risk. So stay calm, light the area well and get to work.
