    How to clean white thumbsticks


    Some months back, I ordered a custom Xbox Series X controller with white thumbsticks from Xbox Design Lab, and I wanted to ask what is the best way to clean the thumbsticks when they discolour? Thank you.

    :)

    Xbox One DAY ONE Edition controller makes a buzzing/electric noise when rumble motors are in use

    I looked under my thumbsticks and underneath the cap of the left thumbstick, you can see white dust or buff/scratch marks.

    My Xbox thumbstick is drifting

    Try to clean a base of thumbstick with cleaning alcohol. If that not helps, there is no other solution. Only the new controller.

    Controller having bumper issues, something called "drifting"

    I have cleaned my thumbstick with the toothpick, but it stills drifting?
