How do I clean my laptop screen?
So...what should I be using to clean my laptop screen? Dell recommends Isopropyl Alcohol (50/50) with water. Would it be ok to use 91% Isopropyl Alcohol ?
What are you guys using? Thanks... |

I would avoid alcohol or ammonia based cleaners. Check out this stuff:http://www.pixelclean.com/ Be sure to use a soft cloth too, not a paper towel.

With my Dell Laptop I use a 50/50 solution of 70% USP rubbing alcohol and water. I wet a washrag with the solution, clean the screen, and then take a coffee filter (lint free) to take off the lint.

Honestly, I just use soap and water on a paper towel. Works fine for me, on both glossy and matte screens.

The biggest trick is spray the towel, not the screen.
