How to Properly Clean your Laptop’s LCD Screen

Quick Tips By Geoff R

Digital Inspiration offers some great tips and advice on how to properly clean your laptop’s LCD screen, without scratching it.

“The TFT or LCD screen is one of the most expensive component of your notebook or desktop computer and they’re very sensitive to dust, fingerprints or even when you cough or sneeze without covering the mouth and nose.

Unlike the standard CRT monitors with Glass screens, you are not advised to clean an LCD Monitor by wiping it with a piece of dry lint-free cloth since the sensitive display is likely to get scratches from dust particles.”

Wait, you mean spit and a tissue is the wrong way? Seriously, that article treats the screen like washing a $200,000 car. I don’t think the screen is THAT delicate. I just use a wet and dry face towel.
