Hey everybody, I was wondering if you guys have any idea how to get particles out of the speaker grill. They're in a few holes in my left and right speaker grill. I've tried vacuuming it out but that proved to no avail.

Any ideas? It really bugs me to look at my Macbook Pro with some imperfections from a speaker grill.
 
You could try blowing some compressed air at it very carefully, that should dislodge whatever is stuck in the speaker grill, you could also try using a microfiber cloth and see if it will come off with that.
 
Use compressed air carefully!! Try to spray towards another opening in the laptop, sorta towards the back end of the laptop. That way the "junk" can easier leave the laptop.

Thanks for the quick responses!

Unfortunately these methods haven't worked :(.

I almost want to open the MBP up just to get the junk out...

EDIT: Food and stuff I guess? I'm not sure what it is.
