Screen Cleaner

[emmie]

i need a decent laptop screen cleaner, as its got lots of splots on it, do i go for the wipes, but they won't last long or something else. its also gets very dusty, i have been using my spectacle cloth but that only works for a few mins.

[emmie]

any suggestions most welcome, also how to clean the keyboard.

[ummmm]

Micro fibre clothes.

[emmie]

for which ummmm, for the screen?

Window cleaning liquid works just as well as anything. Spray it onto a cloth, though, not the keyboard or screen.

These are what I use. Damp them them a ring then out really well.

[emmie]

don't have any window cleaning products to be honest. if i did what sort of cloth should i use.

[emmie]

do you damp them first ummmm, ring them out, then wipe the screen....

[ummmm]

I use micro fibre on all glass and mirrors. One to clean them and another to dry them off.

Cheap supermarket glass and window cleaner with J cloths or equivalent. If you have no window cleaning products how do you clean the inside of your windows, TV, mirrors &c?

[emmie]

so you wet them first, then use a dry cloth to go over them, i know i am being a bit thick, but must get this right,

Yes, fine-textured slightly damp microfibre cloth...the only thing you need. No cleaning sprays of any kind!

[emmie]

i don't clean windows, they stay amazingly clean. don't ask me how, as to mirrors, i only have one, and that gets a dusting from time to time. or a wipe over with a damp cloth.

I use Nilglass sprayed onto a tissue. Got it for the car but it works on other things too!

[emmie]

can i use the cloths on the tv screen too

[gingejbee]

...and you should never use paper-based products (ie cellulose) on any sensitive surfaces ie any screen, spectacles etc as fine scratches will result.

[emmie]

have ordered those you recommended ummmm, so slightly damp cloth, then wipe off with dry one, sounds right....

[emmie]

what about the keyboard, do you do the same - or is that too risky...

I use this Amazon.com User Recommendation although I buy the larger size, it lasts for ages.

...if the cloth is only very slightly damp, you will find that the surface dries itself. I never use anything dry on sensitive surfaces like screens, specs etc.
