HOW TO CLEAN AIRPODS (EAR WAX MAGNETS) | URBAN LEGENDS & TIPS

If you're like me, you use your hearing aids almost every day, some of the best times to use hearing aids are when you first wake up or when you're brushing your teeth on a break at work and putting the baby down for a nap. minutes later, when the baby wakes up from a nap in the supermarket 3 while he rakes the leaves and, of course, while he goes for a walk. Hi, I'm Johnny Collins, today I'm going to show you how to

clean

your

airpods

. There is more than one way. to

clean

your

airpods

, but today I'm going to go over some of the different ways, maybe what worked, what methods didn't work, and ultimately at the end of the video you'll be able to choose which method works best for you.

You also want to go over sanitizing. I decided to let my air pots get as horrible and disgusting as possible, let the dirt, let the grime, let the wax cake up so I can go ahead and clean them in the video that we can see. If any of the methods I'm showing you today are effective when cleaning your Air Pod case, you want to start with a soft cloth, you can also use a microfiber cloth, and just press and wipe firmly. remove dirt and grime, clean any debris that has managed to get into your case, earwax droppings.

I'm sure there's something in there and then you're going to need your Q-tip because you won't be able to get everywhere with the fabric don't stay too low there are connectors in there you don't want to damage them give them there try to get into that crack behind the actual air pods there are So much dirt and grime in here that you just want to start by cleaning it as best you can, slowly. I think to remove that gunk you can use this technique where you turn it around and it just takes care of the gunk.

Apple doesn't want you to use any liquid while cleaning your airpods. but it's okay to use a little bit of alcohol while you're cleaning the case, so you can wet a cotton swab or you can take an alcohol prep pad that already has a little bit of alcohol in it, squeeze the tip and you're gone. I'm going to over saturate your cotton swab now you're just going to get it so clean with the cotton swab and the extra dirt that it's not going to remove use your bristle brush I'm using a new toothbrush that I bought specifically to clean my pots of air was on sale there's clearance in fact I'm bookmarking it so I don't accidentally use this in the bathroom don't worry we're good so the real secret to really removing the gunk that's on the perimeter of your air pods , that?

I actually found the best job for me was a toothpick, a regular old toothpick, at your own risk use a toothpick which means you could damage your air capsules if you're not handy with your hands . I'm pretty good with my hands and it worked. you want to lightly grab this toothpick and lightly scrape the outside of the air capsules and see that, look at everything you're getting out of there, that's disgusting. The air capsules are earwax

magnets

, do not press, you will damage the mesh. Lightly scrape off the dirt that will remove most of the dirt embedded in the earwax and then the toothbrush really that's what's going to fix it all now that we have our magic sponge.

I want to see if I can remove this scratch. Oh, so this is what happens to the magic sponge: it breaks, you get all these particles everywhere, maybe this is good for the outside at best, but I'm going to pass the magic sponge, they put it , they remove it and it is clean. I thought I'd try it now, I don't go out and specifically because of the blue tack I think it's called but I found one that says use putty for home electronics so I thought ooh this should work it's putty I tried it. that and this is what happened.

I almost ruined my headphones, so I'm not telling you not to use blue technology, no no, you can use one of these air blowers, just blow it, but if it still doesn't reach the lens. out, you can, you just took a little bit like an air capsule surgeon, be very careful with that. I don't want you to break your ear capsules just trying to get some light out. You don't want to just clean the outside of your air pods. you also want to kill germs you want to kill bacteria this is the secret this will sterilize your headphones it will kill 99.9% of all the bacteria that exist its works on your headphones works on your phone you can take off the band your Apple watch or any other device electronic that you have that fits here the ultraviolet light will kill the bacteria thanks for watching, like, subscribe, share and comment below and I will see you in the next video.
