Due to continuous use, the laptop screen becomes dirty due to dust and fingerprints etc. This not only spoils the visibility but also spoils the experience of using the laptop. Great care is needed to clean it. There is a risk of it breaking due to excessive pressure, whereas if hard chemicals or cloth are used, its protective layer can get damaged. In such a situation, let us know how to clean the laptop screen, so that it shines.
Clean with these methods
Before starting to clean the screen, turn off the laptop by unplugging it from the power source. If you are using it for the first time then wait for it to cool down. Microfiber cloth can be used to clean dust and light smudges. If there are stubborn marks on the screen, use distilled water to clean them. Use the air compressor carefully to remove dust from corners and edges. Apart from these, you can also use cleaning wipes. Let the laptop dry thoroughly before using it again.
Never make these mistakes
Never clean laptop screen with paper towel or tissue paper etc. One should also avoid cleaning the screen with alcohol and ammonia based cleaners as they can damage the protective layer. Similarly, one should avoid spraying liquid directly on the screen while cleaning. This liquid can pass through the edges and reach the internal parts of the screen and damage them.
