Quick answer
Use a microfiber cloth with mild soap and water, then air-dry the case before reattaching it to your MacBook Pro 16.
Why cleaning matters for a rugged case
Dust and oils build up in the precise cutouts and along the edges of a protective case. Over time, that grit can scratch the polycarbonate or leave a dull film on the green color. Regular cleaning keeps the case looking bold and prevents debris from rubbing against your MacBook's finish.
Step-by-step cleaning process
- Remove the case from your MacBook: Gently unclip the top and bottom halves of the Unicorn Beetle cover. Set the laptop aside on a clean, dry surface. Never clean the case while it is attached—moisture can seep into the vents or ports.
- Wipe with a damp microfiber cloth: Dampen a clean microfiber cloth with water and a drop of mild dish soap. Wipe the entire case, paying extra attention to the cutouts and edges. Avoid using paper towels, alcohol, or abrasive cleaners. Harsh chemicals can cloud the polycarbonate or fade the green finish.
- Rinse and air-dry completely: Wipe off any soap residue with a fresh damp cloth. Let the case air-dry on a towel for at least 30 minutes. Do not use a hair dryer or place it in direct sunlight. Reattaching a damp case can trap moisture against your MacBook, risking damage to the aluminum or ports.
