🍚 Why Rice Doesn't Work

Putting your phone in rice is one of the most common myths. Here's why it doesn't help:

•Rice doesn't absorb moisture fast enough to prevent corrosion
•Rice dust can get into ports and speakers, causing more damage
•It gives a false sense of security while corrosion continues inside

What actually works: Professional ultrasonic cleaning and drying removes water and contaminants from circuit boards before corrosion sets in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does putting a wet phone in rice actually work?

No, this is a myth. Rice doesn't effectively absorb moisture from inside a phone, and rice dust can cause additional damage. Professional treatment is much more effective.

What are the chances my phone can be saved?

If treated within 24-48 hours, success rates are 60-70%. The longer you wait, the lower the chances. Corrosion starts immediately once water gets inside.

My phone still works after getting wet - is it okay?

Not necessarily. Water damage can cause corrosion that takes days or weeks to show symptoms. Even if it works now, internal damage may cause problems later.

Is water damage covered by warranty?

No, water damage is not covered by Apple, Samsung, or most manufacturer warranties. However, repair is often much cheaper than replacement.

Can my data be recovered from a water-damaged phone?

Often yes, even if the phone can't be fully repaired. Data recovery from water-damaged devices has a higher success rate than many people expect.
