Laptop Screen Cleaning -- How To Do It

If you want to clean your LCD laptop screen the correct way, and do it for cheap, then you should read this article. In it, we will discuss in a step-by-step fashion exactly how to clean your laptop screen so as not to damage it, and also make it display clearly. After reading this article, you should know exactly what to do and what not to do when it comes to laptop screen cleaning.

Before you start cleaning your laptop screen, make sure to shut your laptop down, unplug it from the power adapter, and remove the battery before you clean it. This will ensure that you will not suffer from an electrical shock.

First, purchase some rubbing alcohol (make sure it's isopropyl alcohol) and mix it with some distilled water. The correct amount is 50% alcohol/50% water. Distilled water is the best because it is pure, so there will be no mineral residue left behind from cleaning your screen.

Next, take the mixture and place it in a small bottle with a squirt mechanism attached to the top. Make sure to set the spritzer to a fine mist.

The third step in the laptop screen cleaning process is to take the mix and apply it to a soft cotton cloth. An old T-shirt will work just fine, and the bigger cloth you use, the better. Otherwise, you may find yourself leaving streaks across the screen as a result of pressing with your fingers.

Take the cloth, and wipe the screen down. Make sure to press very gently on the screen, and apply even pressure to all parts of the cloth touching the screen. If too much of a solution is left on your screen, simply wipe it off with a dry cotton cloth. The reason you use a cotton cloth instead of a tissue or toilet paper, is because it won't leave behind a residue of paper particle. In addition, cheap paper towels are often coarse and grainy, so you can scratch your LCD screen.

As an alternative, you can purchase store bought products especially made for cleaning laptop screens, but all you're purchasing is a mixture of alcohol and water, just like the one you made above.

In conclusion, a good laptop screen cleaning can extend the lifetime of your laptop monitor, as well as make it easier for you to view things projected on your computer screen. Follow these tips, and you'll have a clean and healthy laptop screen.
