Thomann Microphone Cleaner

It's an age old problem and not one that's always been readily solved - how do you maintain hygiene without destroying your mic..?

This looks like a pretty simple answer :-)

Can it rock up like Mr Muscle and simply strip years of neglect, sweat and spit from your favourite microphone with just one squirt of the top..? Probably not... but used regularly, yes, it can keep that microphone feeling fresh and clean.

I've treated several mics (Beta 58s and a Neumann KMS 105) to an application of this - of course, it's best to remove the ball / grille and apply it inside and out without needed to drench the mic capsule itself over and over again - and yes, I'd have to say that I have confidence in the product's claims.

Even though it's a small can, it lasts a while and at the very least, it's got to be better than not bothering at all, right..?

This little spray gives all the vocalists at our church the confidence to know they will not pick up any bugs or diseases when they are singing.

And that lingering musty odour that vocal microphones can pick up because of moisture (and bad breath) has completely disappeared.

Whilst the metallic parts of a microphone don't tend to harbour bacteria and viruses for long, the foam insides do, so someone from our maintenance team sprays the vocal microphones regularly to keep everything sanitised and fresh.

My only reservation with the product is I would like a larger sized can because we do use it a lot!
