I use a dust closh...I havn't noticed it scratching my screen at all. Saying that, it's probably better to be safe than sorry - if it scratches my screen now, i'm going to be gutted :bored:

I use the underside of my sleave sometime with some spit and i have never damaged or scrached a screen.

I have tried using the cloth one but their are some smudges in it probably I got it when I have allow my niece to play it before and it cant be removed by special cloth

Hi! Why not to buy special napkins for computer screens? They will remove dust and at the same time won't damage and scratch the screen.

I have tried it but the it can remove dirt in my laptop only I think the smudges is still there. Anyway is there any liquid which you can spray for you laptop that can act as cleaner?

I heard about using the windows cleaning liquid for this purpose. But I never used it by myself.

Hi,

What you do is leave the plastic on that come with it when you get it new. Then when it is so dirty that you can't see any more you take the plastic off. LOL the next time you can't see the screen. It's time to get a new computer. LOL

This is the same thought as when the ash tray is full buy a New Car.

hehehehe

You shouldn't use liquids, and you shouldn't use just any cloth. Try a microfiber cloth if you want to wipe it with a dry cloth. The other option is to use Dust-Off Monitor Wipes or some similar anti-static LCD screen wipes that come pre-moistened with the proper cleaning fluid.

I do not know what the name is, But I always use softly cloth for glasses and it's work good for me

Ok I think I am going to checked some computer shop here in our country if they are selling some screen wipes with proper cleaning fluid. Actually what I am looking for now is the proper cleaning fluid which I can use in the screen.

You can use special napkins which are made for this. Also you can take very soft cloth and some very hot spirit and you can clean it.

Well,try to buy special washing liquid and then clean it with a little brush.I always use this
way to clean my laptop.

Try using a smooth cloth with slightly dipped with IsoPropyl component, even we using the same to clean our office touch screen systems. Try it and reply.

I use a smooth cloth.

The Proper Way to Clean LCD Screens Of Your Laptop or Flat Screen Monitors - Digital Inspiration

Anything fabric that is 100% cotton

I used soft cottan clothe or tissue paper to clean notebook screen

if you feel like you screen is sensitive you can follow these steps

first turn off you notepad/laptop but keep it open. in black screen you can see the dirt more. Use a dry soft cloth and wipe the screen. try microfiber type cloth like the eyeglasses cleaner. Don't rub it hard. If it doesn't clean that way use a glass cleaner to clean or mix water with white vineger in equal proportion then clean it.

1:Create a gentle cleaning solution. The ideal solution is plain distilled water. If more heavy cleaning is needed a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and distilled water can also be effective.
2:Put the solution in a small atomizer bottle, the type that you push from the top to get a fine mist. Don't use this to spray on the screen itself, however.
3:Apply a minimal amount of the solution to very soft cloth such as a cotton cloth (e.g. an old T-shirt), a lint-free microfiber cloth, a disposable cloth (such as a soft, non-woven compress or disposable wipe from the drugstore with no cleaning agents added) or similar. A large cloth (or several disposable wipes) is best, since it will help to reduce the risk of leaving streaks across the screen from finger pressure. Do not make the cloth wet, only moist. A wet cloth can drip or run when cleaning the screen and the solution can weep behind the bezel and permanently damage your screen!
4:Wipe the cloth against the screen in a circular, or other consistent motion. Rapid circular movements generally eliminate streaks. Apply a gentle and even pressure to the cloth. Use only enough pressure to keep the cloth in contact with the screen. Take care not to press your fingers into the cloth or screen. Applying too much force when cleaning the screen can permanently damage the LCD matrix rendering your screen unusable.

I use very soft cloth such as a cotton cloth. Can you try....

Thanks,

Use CCleaner. It will be good to keep your computer neat and clean.

I use the underside of my sleave sometime with some spit and i have never damaged or scrached a screen.

cotton is by far the best material for the job.

I often clean it with a cleaner, kind of like washing-up liquid.

i do it with some worm water and also adding some cleaning glass detergent in it

not really; it also depends on what type of screen ou have and how good the protection it has!

well i guess you know best since you use this method !

I just clean my my computer screen with useless cloth.

Micro-fibre cloths can be purchased separately and used with isopropyl alcohol 91%, and/or distilled water. Whether using the complete kit or the cloths alone, make sure the packaging designates the product is ”safe for laptops and LCD screens.”
