Hey everyone! I think its been about a year since I got my FP5 from murena, with the blue case. I noticed early on that from normal use it got stained and a bit dirty. Keep in mind I live in a really hot country (summers reach around 45°C) so sweating is unavoidable, especially if Im helping a relative with their garden/general house maintenance, or similar activities that equal unclean hands + sweat.

Ive tried wiping it with a wet wipe, but the stains remain.

Any ideas for what I can use to clean it without damaging the material? Im thinking of trying rubbing alcohol but Id like some advice before I try anything new, to avoid damaging it since its a non-standard recycled material.

Id also like to keep this colour of case since I really like the blue :)

      Thanks, yea i was asking about the 3d printed one :)

      I managed to clean mine a bit with rubbing alcohol, but some of the staining remains. For now ill stick with what i have, and keep the 3d printing idea in my back pocket :D

        I would advise looking around the different options for the case. This one is really big and comes above the screen on the sides. It makes a big phone into a huge one.
        Can’t take a photo of it obviously, but when taking it off I’m reminded how “small” the phone actually is.
        It’s fine for me and I won’t print another (unless this one kicks the bucket), but I would have maybe chosen another instead. At least the phone is well protected, and the fingerprint reader is easily accessible
