Well, first the disclaimer, this worked for me and caused no known damage to my controller, don't message me if you end up destroying yours.
Alright, all I used was:
a medium toothbrush
rubbing alcohol
a clean cloth
- First off, this should be a given but make sure your toothbrush is clean (not a general cleaning toothbrush).
- With the with bristles up put a drop or two of rubbing alcohol on the the tip of the bristles just at the end. I recommend a medium or soft toothbrush to allow the bristles to bend into the crevasses.
- Turn the toothbrush over (bristles down), if alcohol drips off you probably have too much.
- Now get your controller (I made sure mine was turned off).
- Take your toothbrush and work the bristles around in the crevasses around the buttons. I did notices a blue tint to the bristles after cleaning my blue controller but there was no fading to the actual controller.
- Now you should have a bit of rubbing alcohol on the controller around the buttons, take your cloth and just rub the top of the controller until it is completely dry.
- If you are nervous let your controller sit for a while but I was pretty sparing with the rubbing alcohol so I turned mine on after I rubbed it with the cloth and it worked like new again.
