How to Clean a Laptop Screen

Video Transcript

"My name is James, computer hardware coordinator for InterConnection and I am going to show you how to clean your laptop screen. To clean your laptop screen is very similar in cleaning a LCD desktop screen. All you need is a monitor wipe. These are available at any electronic store and they are rather an inexpensive purchase. What you'll do is take your monitor wipe and start from the top, work your way down. Cleaning off all the dust and debris. Now, you don't want to push too hard on this screen because it is fairly sensitive. And you also don't want to use a napkin, a paper towel or anything else that might scratch the fine membrane on the screen. Well, that got a lot of dirt off. There is still some dirt left. You might want to make sure that your monitor cloth is still clean. If it is not, use another side of it or another cloth. As far as the rest of the screen goes you can just use an isopropyl or rubbing alcohol, your existing monitor wipe or just a wet cloth to the clean the rest of it, as it is just as any other plastic piece on your computer, home, car or TV. My name is James and I just showed you how to clean your screen."
