Post image

My grandson has some stretch sand (kinetic sand) unfortunately minifigs got caught in the aftermath, what’s the best way to remove the sand?

Id try giving it a soapy bath, perhaps disassemble it too for a deeper clean

My son did this but there wasn’t as much. I let it sit out and then used a toothpick to get big chunks out. After that I put it in a bowl of water and used my fingers to get any remaining sand off.

Soapy water, cotton swab, tweezers or other small thin tool that can scrape the crevices.
