Water and soap are not always enough to properly clean the bracelets of connected watches, especially for certain materials. Fortunately, there is a simple, quick, inexpensive and above all very effective solution!

Connected watches have found their place in our daily lives, to the point of becoming true fashion accessories. In fact, you can change the strap whenever you want, to adapt it to all situations and even match your outfit: dark leather for going to work, brightly colored silicone for sports, canvas light color to go out with your friends… But if you want to keep these bracelets for a long time, you must maintain them regularly by cleaning them carefully.

No problem with fluoroelastomer bracelets, which are often used for sports activities: a little water with soap does the trick. On the other hand, nylon or polyester bracelets – which are found in particular on Apple Watch – are much more complicated. They tend to get dirty and it’s not possible to completely get them back with just soap and water, even with a strong scrubbing.

Fortunately, there is a miracle solution, both ultra-effective and inexpensive, that can easily be found in stores in the household products section: Mr. Clean’s magic eraser. A revolutionary product of which there are various equivalents in supermarkets or on online stores, under major brands like Scotch-Brite, specialized brands like Mr Siga, or even under distributor brands – Nichols at Action, W5 at Lidl or Twido at Aldi. The icing on the cake: they cost less than 2 euros each. And even less than 1 euro each at discounters or when you take them in batches of 12 or 24 at e-tailers. No need to deprive yourself of it!

Magic eraser: how to clean your connected watch strap?

Mr Clean’s magic eraser and its equivalents are two-sided sponges, often white, and sometimes separated by a colored area: one to remove dirt and the other to remove residue. To clean your connected watch strap, just take one of these sponges and a bowl of water, hot if possible. You don’t even need soap!

Start by wetting the sponge and wringing it out so that it no longer drips. Rub in circles around the area to be cleaned, emphasizing the stains. It shouldn’t take more than a few minutes, and there’s no need to press very hard. You can add a little soap if you want to scent your bracelet, but that won’t make cleaning more effective. If your sponge ever has a pink end, use it to conclude the cleaning with a few gentle strokes to remove any remaining gum residue. Then leave to dry in the open air, and you’re done!

Note that the magic eraser like its equivalents are not only used to clean watch straps: you can use them to scour your kitchen (furniture, ceramic hob, oven, fridge, etc.), your bathroom (basin, bathtub, shower…), but also to remove limescale, remove stubborn stains on your dishes or the floor, erase traces of pencil on a wall, maintain a leather belt… In short, it is also the perfect tool to do the household since it can clean all surfaces and all types of dirt, whether it is encrusted dirt, residues, deposits, scratches, etc. In short, it is the ultimate anti-stain accessory, to have absolutely at home!
