How to wash a mouse pad?

[Bpiogantro]

I’m not sure how to wash a mouse pad without damaging it. Should I hand wash it, or is it safe when learning how to wash a mouse pad in a machine? I’d appreciate advice on the safest way for how to wash a mouse pad properly.

I’ve put my SteelSeries in the washing machine on a cold cycle plenty of times and it comes out fine. Just don't put it in the dryer unless you want to melt the rubber backing and ruin your life.

To wash a mouse pad, first check the material. For most cloth mouse pads, use warm water and a small amount of mild soap, gently scrub with a soft brush or sponge, then rinse thoroughly. Pat it dry with a towel and let it air dry completely before using it again. Avoid using a dryer, as heat can damage the surface or backing.

I usually hand wash mine with a little mild soap and warm water, it’s the safest way and keeps the edges from fraying. If you do use a machine, go gentle cycle and air dry it, I ruined one once by tossing it in the dryer
