Screen Cleaning

[sam fisher]

Is it ok to clean the GP2x's screen with a microfiber cloth (like they tell you to do with the DS).

 

[TelcoLou]

I sure hope so, I use one to clean mine

 

[daclassicgamingmaster]

I use the one craig gave me with the system

 

[sam fisher]

I didnt get one wiht mine. ihave 3 spair though.

i clean mine with whatever is readily available. I have a screen protector so If i scratch it up too much I can just take it off and buy a new one (only $6)

 

[triton]

i use the bottom of whatever shirt i am using usually 100% cotton lol

Bucket of cold soapy water, wire wool and dry off with a chamois leather. Sorted.

when you say protectors do you mean the thin screen protectors or the large hard-plastic screen protector that comes with the unit? I was referring to the thin ones, i don't know if you can get the thicker ones anywhere...

I'd like to see you "just" taking the hard protector off :unsure:

edit: oh I see you meant the extra protector... -Was allready wondering where you got another hard one from ^^

 

[Paradox]

i mean the hard screen protector, the actual thick plastic bit, i wouldnt mind having a couple cause accidents do happen no matter how careful you are and it can get scratched / marked badly, so hving a couple spare would be great. id pay £1.50-3.00 for a replacement screen protector.

 

[Wolfspirit]

Can you actually remove the hard screen protector and if so are there any available? Mine already came with scratches on it when I opened up my gp2x for the first time today.

 

[Paradox]

its stuck on by sticky stuff under it, so it would come off, and since its scratched anyway and you would be removing it to put on a new one, you wouldnt care if you damaged the screen removing it, so you could easily prise it off

 

[cakey]

I picked up a couple of these. Seem to work well.

 

[DaveC]

I clean mine with steel wool. Well not really but I don't worry too much about scratching as I have a glass screen cover

 

[dennis20014]

yea i opened mine today and it had stuff all in it, I tried cleaning it a bit but then it was worse when I put it on. I'll get it off and put a thin one on

 

[alucks]

have those of you who feel your screen protector is badly marked removed the thin film of plastic off the front? it's not easy to spot if you don't know it's there.

 

[matt goode]

i did a crap job of putting my scren prootector on, loads of dust i didnt see under it O.O

Indeed your screen covers are not pre-scratched, they have a plastic screen protector on them that you have to peel off to have the nice glossy plastic, Personally I'm not taking mine off untill I get those official ones from GP32Z.
