How to Care for Your Rocketbook Accessory Kit: Cleaning, Storage, and Replacement Tips

Your Rocketbook reusable notebook is built to last, but its accessories—like the microfiber towel, spray bottle, and Frixion pens—need a little TLC to keep performing at their best. With proper care, you can extend the life of your kit and enjoy a smooth, streak-free writing and erasing experience every time.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the best practices for cleaning, storing, and knowing when to replace the key components of your Rocketbook accessory kit. Whether you’re a seasoned user or just starting out, these tips will help you get the most out of your investment.

Cleaning Your Rocketbook Microfiber Towel

The microfiber towel is your primary tool for wiping pages clean, so keeping it in good condition is essential. Over time, it can pick up ink residue, dust, and oils from your hands, which may reduce its effectiveness. To clean it, simply hand-wash it with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as they can damage the fibers and leave a residue that transfers to your pages.

After washing, rinse thoroughly and let it air dry. You can also machine-wash it on a gentle cycle, but skip the dryer—high heat can melt the synthetic fibers. A clean towel will ensure that your Rocketbook pages erase completely without smudging.

• Hand-wash with mild soap and warm water.
• Never use fabric softener or bleach.
• Air dry; avoid the dryer.

Maintaining Your Rocketbook Spray Bottle

If your kit includes a spray bottle, it’s important to keep it clean to avoid clogging and ensure an even mist. After each use, empty any remaining water and let the bottle air dry with the cap off. This prevents mineral buildup and mold growth.

For a deeper clean, rinse the bottle with a mixture of white vinegar and water, then let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could leave a residue on your pages. A well-maintained spray bottle will help you moisten pages evenly for a perfect erase.

• Empty and air dry after each use.
• Deep clean with vinegar and water monthly.
• Avoid harsh chemicals.

Storing Frixion Pens and Markers

Frixion pens and markers are gel-based and heat-sensitive, so how you store them affects their performance. Always store them horizontally or with the tip pointing down to keep the ink flowing smoothly. Avoid exposing them to extreme heat or direct sunlight, as this can cause the ink to become clear prematurely.

Keep them capped when not in use to prevent drying. If a pen starts to skip, try warming the tip slightly (like rubbing it between your hands) to revive the ink. For long-term storage, place them in a cool, dry place away from radiators or windows.

• Store horizontally or tip down.
• Keep away from heat and sunlight.
• Cap them when not in use.

Knowing When to Replace Rocketbook Accessories

Even with the best care, accessories will eventually wear out. The microfiber towel may lose its absorbency or become frayed after many washes. Frixion pens will run out of ink, and spray bottles may crack or clog beyond repair. Recognizing the signs of wear can help you replace them before they affect your notebook experience.

A good rule of thumb is to replace your microfiber towel every 6-12 months, depending on usage. Pens should be replaced when they start skipping or produce faint lines. For the spray bottle, if the mist becomes uneven or it leaks, it’s time for a new one. Keep an eye on your Rocketbook Dividers and Sticker Sheets too—they may need replacing if they lose their stickiness or get damaged.

• Replace towel if it stops absorbing or looks worn.
• Swap pens when ink runs low or lines are faint.
• Check spray bottle for leaks or clogs.

By giving your Rocketbook accessory kit a little regular attention, you’ll keep your reusable notebook system working seamlessly for years. Remember to clean your microfiber towel properly, maintain your spray bottle, store your Frixion pens correctly, and replace items when they show signs of wear. With these simple habits, you’ll always have a reliable, eco-friendly note-taking setup ready to go.
