The microwave is only to warm (30 seconds should do the trick) the amount of distilled water being used to soak the gel substance. The zerodust shouldnt go in the microwave. That being said, I just want to make sure to soak it long enough but not too long. I did not think to remove it from the bottom case which it sits though, I didnt think you could or should do that.
Proper cleaning of the zerodust styus cleaner
I had spoken w/ music direct at the NYC show about how to properly clean this product. Mine has around 9 mos. of lower than average use.I have purchased dislilled water and original palmolive dish detergent for the job. I assume that I submerse the ZD (gel portion w/o cap) in to the warm(30 sec. in the microwave) distilled water w/ a little palmolive and then common sense tells me to rinse the unit w/ more plain distilled water after soaking in the one w/ the detergent. I am not sure how long to soak the bottom (fluid) part in the dist. water /palmolive however. Can anyone shed any light on my next big cleaning project.
