How to properly and effectively clean The Joy Factory aXtion cases
Did you know that your phone and tablet are 10 times dirtier than a public toilet seat?
The dirty truth is that everything that you touch ends up on your phone and tablet as well. Think about it- we walk around all day touching door knobs, opening our car door, shaking peoples hands, just to be followed by us grabbing our phone or tablet and using it like nothing ever happened. This is why it is essential to clean our devices monthly, weekly, or even on a daily basis in order to keep ourselves safe and healthy!
We recommend cleaning aXtion cases after every use cycle. Most hospital-grade disinfectant wipes with a high alcohol concentration are safe to use on aXtion cases.
