This article will show you step-by-step how to clean your laptop screen without using harsh chemicals such as windex or chemicals that contain alcohol or ammonia as these may harm the computer screen.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Combine a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water into a spray bottle. It's best not to use harsh chemicals that contain alcohol or ammonia. These chemicals might harm the screen on your laptop.

  2. Step 2

    Spray the white vinegar and water mixture onto a clean cloth. Do not spray the mixture on the screen itself. You always want to spray the mixture onto the rag and not the screen. Spray the mixture onto the rag until the rag becomes moist and damp.

  3. Step 3

    Make sure that the cloth is now damp and clean the computer screen with the mixture of 50/50 white vinegar and water. Repeat as necessary. It's also best to do small circular motions in order to get the screen streak free.

Tips & Warnings
  • Using harsh chemicals on laptop screen is not recommended. It's best to purchase a solution made for cleaning laptop screens or you can use a mixture of 50/50 white vinegar and water.
  • Using paper towels might leave tissue residue behind on your computer screen.
  • Avoid getting the rag too damp. Make sure that the rag is moist but not too damp.
  • Do not spray the mixture directly onto the laptop screen. Always spray the mixture onto the clean cloth first.
