Cleaning the iPad neoprene case
Does anyone have any tips for cleaning the Apple neoprene case for the iPad? I've only had mine for two weeks, but it seems to pick up marks very easily, and rubbing with a damp cloth doesn't appear to be a very effective way of cleaning it.

you mean the black flip back one? it's not neoprene. hmm. mine hasn't picked up any scratches. a few crumbs from the kitchen table when i'm eating and reading my feeds. i just brushed them off.
might try alcohol, since it will evaporate faster than water. or a dry brush. depends on what you're getting on it i guess. |

just tried 91% isopropyl alcohol on one of those "lint free" cloths. didn't leave anything on the case and i guess it cleaned the surface. evaporated pretty instantly. cheaper than those ikleer wipes.

Ugh. I love the fit and function of the Apple case, but its tendency to pick up random smears and stains drives me crazy. I'll have to try rubbing alcohol - like Harry said, a damp cloth doesn't really cut it.
