Keep your clear acrylic wrist rest looking like new with this simple cleaning routine. No streaks, no scratches—just a quick wipe-down using household items.
Quick answer
Clean your ATTACK SHARK acrylic wrist rest with warm water, a drop of dish soap, and a microfiber cloth. Avoid paper towels and harsh chemicals to keep the frosted surface clear and scratch-free.
Why acrylic needs a different cleaning method
Acrylic is softer than glass and scratches easily if you use the wrong cloth or cleaner. The frosted surface on ATTACK SHARK wrist rests hides minor smudges but shows streaks if you wipe it with a paper towel or a dirty rag.
Sweat and oil from your wrists build up over a day of gaming or typing. If you let that sit, it can make the frosted finish look cloudy. A quick daily wipe prevents that without needing a deep clean.
Step-by-step cleaning routine
- Unplug or move your keyboard: Slide the wrist rest away from your keyboard so you have room to work. If your keyboard is wired, unplug it to avoid accidentally pressing keys while you clean. Common mistake: cleaning the wrist rest while it is still against the keyboard, which traps moisture between the two surfaces.
- Wipe off loose dust and crumbs: Use a dry microfiber cloth or a soft brush to remove any debris from the surface and edges. Do not use a paper towel—it can leave micro-scratches on the acrylic.
- Mix a mild cleaning solution: Fill a small bowl with warm water and add one drop of dish soap. Do not use window cleaner, alcohol, or any solvent—these can fog or craze the acrylic surface. Checkpoint: if the water is too hot, it can warp the acrylic. Use lukewarm water only.
- Dampen your cloth, then wipe: Dip a clean microfiber cloth into the soapy water and wring it out until it is barely damp. Wipe the entire surface of the wrist rest in one direction, not in circles, to avoid spreading oil. Common mistake: using a soaking wet cloth that drips into the gap between the wrist rest and your desk.
- Rinse and dry immediately: Dampen a second microfiber cloth with plain water and wipe off any soap residue. Then dry the wrist rest with a third dry microfiber cloth. Do not let it air dry—water spots can leave a haze.
- Let it sit for 2 minutes before using: Place the wrist rest on a dry surface and wait until it is completely dry to the touch. Putting your wrists on a damp surface can leave new smudges and feel uncomfortable.
