Stain on rubber strap
Anybody know how to get rid of this stain!?
Color from a new set of long sleeves caused this and it won’t come off with soap and a brush ☹️ Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

When my silicone bakeware get stained by food colours I soak them in chlorine bleach or hydrogen peroxide, pretty strong concentration required.
Have never tried with watch band yet but silicone should survive bleach fine; I'd remove all metals though. |

I'm very surprised at that. My white strap doesn't pick up any marks at all, not even from jeans.
Just realised, this is a 42. My white strap on the 42 did mark quite a lot but washing it would remove the marks. Sam (SC11) might be worth contacting for som product to help remove the marks and help maintain the strap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

What kind of soap did you use? I have a Rubber B and if i notice a stain I rinse it w/ lukewarm water and use body soap to clean it up - no toothbrush though but a small rag.

Did you try using any rubbing alcohol? Usually works well on rubber and takes it right off. I've done it on sneakers when jeans rubs off on the rubber parts.

Rubber's meant to get stained. Just flush it down the toilet and thank it for its service.
