  • Stains or residue: For stubborn stains, try rubbing alcohol or a specialized silicone cleaner. Ensure to rinse thoroughly afterwards.
  • Small parts not staying in place: Ensure you are using the magnetic areas for metallic parts. For non-metallic parts, ensure they are placed securely in the designated compartments or lidded boxes.
