The instructions say, "Remove the ear tip from the end cap and stem. (illustration) The ear tip can be cleaned with warm water and mild soap. Do not swim with these ear plugs or expose the stems to any liquids."

Warm water and dish detergent like dawn. I usually let mine soak for a bit. Be sure and let them dry out really well before putting them back in your ears.

Hi Elise, to be honest, I haven't tried yet, because I haven't used them much, I would suggest looking at the little directions on the package, but I am going to try a little liquid soap and warm water; I believe that will clean them properly. Hope that helps!

I just use soapy water and pull back the barb things then rinse well in water. I think it said that on the package.

I know the tag says surface clean only, but my son has nearly immersed his, and it's still in good shape and makes sound. As long as it's just the extremities, I would scrub them by hand in the sink with mild soap or a stain remover. Avoid getting the middle, where the sound box is, wet. Rinse well. Then I just rolled it in a towel to soak up any extra water and let it drip dry. Good as new.

Let the unit completely cool down. Use a plastic 1/2 teaspoon to clean out the ridges and the hard stuff, then wipe with a damp cloth everywhere you see, until completely clean. Then use a dry cloth to finish the job!

I just use warm water, dish soap and a scrub brush on it anytime it needs cleaning. It comes right off.

just rinse it well when you empty it, DONT wait. then when its time to wash, put about 4 inches of hot water in it and add a small squirt of dish soap. screw on the lid and shake hard for about 30 seconds. rinse well and done. no stains, no leftover smell. i've had my pair for over 3 years. i use them for iced tea and iced coffee year round.

Just pop the top and bottom off and clean them in hot soapy water. I use a small scrub brush on them. Have no problems, best way I have found to clean it.

I don't have this one but I have the Thermos Stainless King, which is made similarly. There is nothing like denture cleaning tablets to clean these up. Add warm water to near the top, drop in a denture table, and leave the lid in the "open" position so that the cleaner can foam out the top a little to clean the entire lid. When you rinse, you will find the interior smelling fresh and clean and the stainless inside as bright and shiny as if it just came from the store! No one in the house wears dentures. I only buy the tablets for my coffee mug and to remove rings from our old ceramic bathtub! I don't have this one but I have the Thermos Stainless King, which is made similarly.

I used a mixture of food grade mineral oil and beeswax. Keeps them waterproof for about a month at a time but depends on how often/hard you scrub them clean.

I cleaned the preowned one I bought with soft scrub with bleach. Rinse well. I cleaned and sanitized all at one time.

Good question. The instructions say you should remove the bellows for cleaning. I can't see any way to do that. But after a year of not having cleaned it, I havn't been poisoned so I'm not too concerned.

lThe unit will make a high pitched sound when it needs to be cleaned, but my suggestion is, while you are dusting or at least once a month take the unit and clean it too. I am delighted with this product, and when you do clean it do it with a damp paper towel, you will notice that it will be BLACK, and be sure to clean the little filter at the top too. Don't touch the black crap, it's like printer toner and is hard to get off.

Nonono, I just clean it like once every 2nd month or something in the cleaning station. I clean it once per month just by adding soap to it and let it buzz for 30 seconds :)

I just use warm water. A mild hand soap works too. Just try to scrub too hard.

I use a Scotch Bright non-scratch pad and a little liquid soap. Cleans it right off.

I use a sonic jewelry cleaner. It's not too much of a hassle. U just throw it in and let the cleaner do its thing.

Just soak it in mild soap and water, and if there's residue that needs to be removed use a fingernail brush to remove it.
