Cleaing LCD monitor?

Question

Someone told me i need "special" stuff to clean it, with my old monitor i just used one of those yellow clothes (damp) can i stil i do that?

Answer 1

Don't use windex - or anything with ammonia or alchohol. These solvents may damage the polarizer on the LCD screen - or leave the screen looking cloudy. Over time, these solvents have been proven to damage LCD sceens.

I'd use a cleaner designed for such use with a micro fiber cloth, no paper towels.

Good luck.

Answer 2

There's no reason you can't clean it with your yellow cloth. The stuff the person is talking about is probably a screen cleaning agent which is a simple chemical cleaner (like any old window cleaner). This will give a better clean but your yellow cloth is still fine!

Answer 3

Your damp yellow cloth'll be fine; DON'T use any paper products, i.e. paper towel or the like, as the wood pulp in the paper can eventually produce fine scratches.

Answer 4

Regular Windex or 409 works fine with a soft cloth. Ther eis no need for any special cleaner or wipe. If there was thousands of offices wouldn't install them because cost of maintainng them would be to high

Answer 5

i think may be an anty static dust cloth.
i would not put a damp cloth on my lcd screen

Answer 6

Been using 99 cent generic Windex and paper towels for years. Never had any problems.

Answer 7

Yes a lint free damp cloth NO CHEMICALS. is the best

Answer 8

Just Use any soft cloth .. and if u can use moist tissue papers then its quite good.

Answer 9

Answer 10

get someone to put a collar on you and a fake tail then you can make dog noises and you can lick the screen clean like a dog

GOOD BOY THERES A GOOD DOGGY ROVER
