how to clean a smart cover for an ipad, how to clean a smart cover for an ipad

A damp soft cloth should suffice.

I used my BMW leather cleaner and then the preservative,on mine and my wife's covers. That was over a year ago and no adverse effects yet. Any good leather cleaner should work, leather is leather.

Happy cleaning!

Take off the Smart Cover from your iPad, run it with WARM water and scrub it with your hands gently. After you've done that dry it with a paper towel of a cloth. You will notice that it will still be damp, just leave it to dry for a while until its dry. I've tried it and was amazed how clean it was!

Although I was happy with how clean the cover was I have not been happy with the effect on its ability to clean the iPad. I find that now (many days after cleaning with water) that the cover tends to just smear the oils and such on the screen rather than absorb them into the cover. Definitely recommend against using water if you still want the cover to clean your ipad screen.

I cleaned both sides of my polyurathane cover yesterday with a product called "AutoWipes"--for cleaning leather and vinyl interiors of cars. Am so far very pleased with the ease, and results. No streaking on screen, easy to use.

To my surprise I found that after a week it started picking up the oil fom the screen again and working normally. Warm water is definitely the answer.

Use an eraser.

I used mr clean eraser and a tiny bit of water. My cover is pink and looks like new.
