How to Clean an LCD screen

"How to Clean an LCD screen" cover image

Is your computer's LCD screen getting so dirty you can barely make out what you're typing. Use a few household ingredients to keep a clear, sharp image on your LCD screen without clouding or scratching it.



You Will Need:

• Distilled water

• Isopropyl alcohol

• A spray bottle

• A soft cotton cloth

• White vinegar (optional)



Step 1: Turn off monitor

Turn off your LCD monitor.

Step 2: Mix solution

Mix a solution of 50 percent distilled water with 50 percent isopropyl alcohol in a spray bottle.

Step 3: Spray the cotton cloth

Spray the cotton cloth with the solution. Do not spray the solution directly onto your computer screen.

Step 4: Wipe the screen

Gently wipe the screen in a circular motion.

Step 5: Let the screen dry

Let the screen dry before turning the monitor back on.



Trivia: LCD screens use as little as 40 percent of the electricity consumed by traditional cathode ray tube monitors.
