Cleaning The Screen

[Pleng]

What are people using to clean their screens? Are normal screen wipes ok to use with a touchscreen?

You're British aren't you Pleng? Poundland are doing screenwipes last time I was in.

Brushed cotton pyjamas would be best. The hem can be a little harsh with its stitching and all.

I'm sure there is some way you can get a Transformer to lick the screen.

You can use some glasses cleaning solution and a lint free synthetic cloth that comes with the solution. I'd recommend spraying the solution on the cloth though, not the screen, to prevent the solution from getting into the side of the screen casing.

Microfiber cloth.

baby wipes, they're gold I tell ya!

I'll just dunk mine in soapy water if it gets dirty. That's the best way, right guys?

Well, it comes at a cost, but it's worth it for a deep, internal clean.

Use 1 part rubbing alcohol and and 1 part water mixed together, it's the same stuff that's in off the shelf bottles of "LCD cleaning solution".

Then your usual microfiber cloth you would use to clean any other LCD monitor

i would say to use water only - no alcohol or anything else at all, not even diluted. screen coatings will succumb, eventually...

For really bad grime and stuff, some kind of dish soap might work, too. They're usually very mild, but reasonably good at stuff like finger oils (or potato chip oils) and stuff.

I just use my thumb.

Awesome. And they're ok to use on the touchscreen? ie Not likely to damage it?

I just use my thumb.

Interesting. That's what made my screen dirty in the first place...
