I tried unsuccesfully to clean him up with wet wipes. I was hesitant to expose Mr. Green Garmin to any harsh chemicals so I avoided using any other types of cleaning products.
Finally, I posted my question in the RunningAHEAD.com forums.
MilkTruck replied that he simply washed the band with soap and warm water.
I took Mr. Green Garmin into the bathroom and carefully ran warm water over each band before I applied some handsoap.
I was amazed by how easily the dirt and grime washed off. I used my fingers to scrub away all the marks. I cautiously ran one finger around the hydrophobic bezel.
I couldn't stop admiring how handsome Mr. Green Garmin looked on my run yesterday.
I'm sure he's relieved I've figured out a way to properly groom him prior to his debut abroad at the Athens Classic Marathon.
maybe we should cover off some other obvious answers ... do you bathe? LOL
ReplyDeletenice watch - I'm jealous
He's going to look nice with that comemorative medal!
ReplyDeleteMy Garmin just stopped working. I'm very sad. I have to see what I can do about it.
ReplyDeleteMr Green Garmin is so much better looking than the previous models.
ReplyDeleteI'm green with envy.
ReplyDeleteMy orange one is an eye sore.
I fear getting my Garmin near any liquids, other than the copious amounts of sweat I regularly subject it to. That's a cool looking Garmin.
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute! Mr. Green Garmin is lucky to have you.
ReplyDeleteI really respect the fact that you're willing to tell the entire Internet that soap&water never occurred to you. :)
