Do I need to use a soft cloth when wiping the small household popcorn maker?

When wiping a small household popcorn maker, it is recommended to use a soft cloth for the following reasons:
1. Prevent scratching the surface of the body
The soft fabric has a gentle texture and will not scratch the plastic or metal surface of the popcorn machine, maintaining a neat and beautiful appearance.
2. Better fit and clean concave and convex parts
Soft cloth has strong flexibility and can better clean buttons, gaps, or irregular parts on the machine, making it easier to operate than hard cloth or paper towels.
3. Avoid shedding debris or hair
Choosing a soft cloth without fiber shedding (such as ultra-fine fiber cloth) can prevent the accumulation of fluff after cleaning and maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the machine.
4. Protective coating or decorative layer
Some household popcorn machines have coating decorations or printed patterns, and wiping with hard or rough materials may cause wear and tear, while soft cloths can effectively protect these details.
5. Using cleaning agents together is safer
When using a small amount of mild cleaning agent, a soft cloth can more evenly absorb the cleaning agent and wipe it, making it less likely for liquid to seep into the electrical parts.
