    I just received my first set of Titan silicone rings. They really look nice. I chose to start in a moderate way with all white. I did not find a topic on the best way to keep them clean. I know they will be much easier than rubber rings. Should I use Novus 1, Scrubbing Bubbles, Magic Eraser or something else? I want something where I do not have to worry about damage to playfield or plastics. Thanks----

    Tried lighter fluid or isopropyl alcohol?

    I'm not sure if I'd use Naphtha on silicone rings, as I've read somewhere that naphtha will soften silicone. It might be alright in a pinch, but I bet a bit of Novus 2 would do the trick just fine.

    For these and normal rubbers, I like pinball life rubber cleaner. Plant based non toxic, and priced reasonable. Also works good on the white wall tires on my friends motorcycle we found.

    1. Try wiping with a plain microfiber cloth first. If still dirty,
    2. Spray a little Novus 1 on a microfiber cloth and wipe the rings.

    It's that easy.

    This is all I've ever used with Perfect Play and Titan silicone rings.

    I am assuming that the Marco cleaner is petroleum based since it says no water. I understand that Novus is water based. It sounds like about half of you prefer a petroleum product and half a water based material. On newer machines, I think I would prefer a water based material if it was equally effective.
