Ok, I have a laptop. And the screen is getting really disgusting. I've had it for around 3 years, and I've never cleaned it. So, does anybody know how's the best way? I'm afraid of doing something wrong :crazy:
soooo..... what should I do?
Using a dry rag doesn't work....
:help:

Disgusting how? Is it greasy or dry hard shite on it? There might be official cleaning products in computer stores (?). Dunno.. just guessing. I think the best way of keeping your screen clean is not touching it (really?) and cleaning it with dust-magnetic-gathering-cleaning-thingie.. :D Don't know it's name in english.

I don't know why, but you should clean it when the pc is turned off. As for what products to use, I really don't know. I'll know something more later.

You can use the stuff you use for cleaning your glasses :ok:
Just turn the computer off and let it rest a bit before cleaning.

You can use grease and oil to clean it. :D
I used glass cleaner and now I am using glasses cleaner (one from RXoptical). I never shout down any of my laptops for cleaning (I used about 5 of them) and never had any problem with the screens. Don’t know what difference can make on laptop, as it does not work on the same principles as TV or CRT monitor. :blink:

Especially not if you don't know how to control yourself! LOL
But in that case (hard to control) you don’t only need help cleaning the screen. :bleh:

Wait, don't clean with the oil! It will leave dirty and disgusting traces on the screen. My mom did that once with my new monitor, then I had to clean that all away entire day... :rolleyes:
