Hello everyone, Have you guys encountered a vortech dry side shell that is very sticky?? how do you clean it? it does not affect the function of the vortech but it's so annoying to look at. any tips?
 
Is it getting salt residue on it? I just use a damp cloth and make sure no liquid gets on it.

No it never got wet. I had this instance before with my ecotech radion Gen1. the outer rim gets really sticky.
 
I have 4 mp60 dry sides that have been in box (for years, sadly) that are extremely sticky now that I am going to use them.

It's really annoying to get black residue all over my hands when I handle them.
