Good Afternoon everyone,

I had a couple friends come over last night and naturally, they wanted to try the Wii Fit. We had a good time playing the Wii Fit; however, when I woke up this morning, I discovered that the balance board is a bit dirty (footprints,sweat,etc).

Any ideas on what cleaning product I should use to clean the balance board?

I was thinking of you of using a Clorox disaffecting wipe.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I just clean it like my game controllers - use a slightly damp toothbrush.

Knowing Nintendo, you could probably go stick it under a waterfall.

I would think most spray cleaners should be ok. There aren't any seams or cracks on the top so no worries about any liquid going where it shouldn't. I'd go with something mild though.

Treat is like a scale people! This is a heavy device and it is best to keep a towel around if you are doing in long workouts to wipe off sweat!

Yeah scrap that a toothbrush works for a little but of dirt and is excellent for cleaning that groove in the middle. But for big stains you should use a slightly damp facecloth with warm water. That should suffice.

Best method for cleaning household things like phones and such, made out of plastic, is Baby Wipes. It will not dry out the plastic like most cleaners will do.

Any of the sanitary wipes should be fine. Nothing wrong with just a towel and some water on it either.

Rubbing Alcohol is NOT a good idea. It will dry out the plastic and make it crack over time.
