Mildew Smell on Blaze

ANSWERED

I have been wearing my Fitbit Blaze every day and night for the last two months, working out 4-5 time a week. I have taken it off for around an hour each day to clean it and clean my wrist. However, today, I realized that there was a mildew smell coming from my watch. I smelled the band and it is not the problem because I clean that, but it the actual computer that is smelling. So, how do I clean the metal piece without ruining it? (I could not find that in the wear and care section :)) Thank you!

With the Blaze, the band frame and pebble may be seperated.  The Mildew smell comes from a living organism.

Since the frame and pebble are none porious it should be easy to wash the offending mold off with a soap free cleanser. 

Yes a mild bleach solution (not reccomended) should also work, but then we have to worry about removing the bleach to keep it from burning the arm. I would not recommend this.
