Cleaning / Take apart Thumbstick remote
Posted: Sun Jul 25, 2010 11:54 am
Just picked up a used 910 with it's original Thumbstick remote (is it considered a remote or a controller?).
The thing's incredibly nasty and sticky, but right now I cant tell what's grime and what's the flaking of the rubber coating. I'm thinking the best way to thoroughly clean it would be to disassemble it and scrub up the shell. I took out the screw in the back, but it doesn't seem to come apart still. I'm guessing the shell snaps together, but I don't want to force it and break it either.
Any suggestions? What's the best cleaning agent on the rubberized surface?
