Default What are you cleaning your ICON with?

My D-Control is getting a bit grubby.

What are you using to clean it with?

I have a good foam spray I used to clean my Euphonix CS surface with which worked great but I'm not sure how durable the D-Control Lexan is and the print on the Lexan also.

Thanks,
Stef.

Good question. I've been thinking about this myself lately. Thanks.

I have a 3M electronics vacuum that I use regularly, followed by a slightly damp soft cloth. That's it.

Paint brush and a vacuum to swipe the dust off. Any stubborn marks just a bit of foam spray on a lint free cloth and wipe it off.

The car-vac are small and have small connections heads being interchangable, so I found it very helpful.

I thought a coffee soaked napkin was the correct method

I use the following:

Incredible Blower!

I use this to wipe clean all my electronic gear:

I use this set with my shop vac for cleaning tight spaces on gear/computer, as well as detailing my cars.
