Long story short: my city is extremely humid and hot (I live in brazil) and mold is a very serious problem in the entire town. My PC had broken and I hadn't used it (or the headset) in a long time.. I had cleaned the earmuffs with alcohol before putting it aside, and i tried to keep it in a ventilated area, but mold still got to it because it was affecting multiple furniture in my house. I was able to clean everything with this guide and I will keep doing my best to keep everything mold free around my house!

Then thoroughly finger pressed them through a towel. Then I started Hanging them on a plastic hanger on a door handle with only the heat of one of my unheated rooms while hanging off of a hanger gently put on of course. Did I miss any steps?

Thank you very much for this video. I was wondering, are the ear cup cushion things on your headset foam or leatherette? I ask because my headset is a Logitech G432 and it has leatherette ear cushion things, but the black shiny stuff on the outside is wearing off and whenever I take my headset off it usually leaves little black particles around my ears from the ear cushions. I couldn't really tell if the ones on your headset are made of something different (since yours are blue and mine are black) or if yours were leatherette and all the shiny stuff already wore off. Also, how long does it usually take for the ear cups to dry once you finish washing them? And are the ear hinges breaking a common issue with Logitech G430 headsets? The right ear hinge part is broken on my headset and I had to duct tape it to the headband part. I thought it might just be from me being a bit too rough with my headset but if it's a common thing with these headsets then I'd bet the issue is more with the headset itself.

You'll see that he's making lever on the earcup to unclip that. Maybe your model have a similar system? I've seen it on other Cosmic Byte models as well

I'm sorry, what holes are you talking about? If you're talking about the ones on the pad itself, it's just a different material. Mine are cloth ear pads, the ones on your headset are synthetic leather. They will be fine. Just don't tumble them dry when you squeeze the water out while cleaning and, instead, compress them from both sides, so you don't stress that synthetic leather too much. Hope that helps!
