How to clean the laptop screen?

I’ve got some dust stains on my laptop screen, which I tried to remove using my nail. It wouldn’t go away. I realized if I try any harder I’m going to damage the screen.

I’m thinking of using glass cleaner (Windex) or my the solution that I use to clean my glasses. Would that be a bad idea or is there a particular type of cleaner out there that I gotta use to prevent damage?

what kinda dust stain is that?

Re: How to clean the laptop screen?

It looks like a dust stain to me. I don't know how else to describe it. I know if I use water or some sort of solution, it will go away. I just don't want to damage the screen basically.

"Take your mouth close to the screen and go "haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" and then wipe off the condensation with your dupatta"

window cleaners ... a big no no ... its not safe to use 'em cause they are quite aggressive for the screen ... same goes for the lens cleaner ... I suggest you get a proper LCD screen cleaner ... I think any LCD cleaner will do ...

^ Brilliant idea. :smiley:

Too bad, it’s so hot outside, otherwise I would’ve strolled to the mall to get the LCD cleaner.
