How to Clean LCD Screens?

August 7, 2020 By Miranda Jackson Leave a Comment

Nowadays, many devices have LCD screens. Whether it’s a TV, computer screen, tablet, or phone, all of those LCD screens will get dirty very quickly with fingerprints or dust.

But since it’s a very fragile screen, we don’t always know how to clean it properly. Here are some tips that will allow you to clean your LCD screens and especially to do it safely.

1. Use lens cleaning wipes

Do you know those wipes that come with your glasses and are used to clean your lenses safely? Well, they will be perfect for cleaning your LCD screens.

2. Use a cotton cloth

To avoid scratching your LCD or plasma screen or even LED, use a soft cotton cloth (dry) and gently rub your screen. Cotton cloth is ideal for cleaning your devices with an LCD screen. It does not risk damaging or scratching your screen—a perfectly clean screen with better image quality and very pleasant to watch.

3. Adopt a solution based on white vinegar and water

It is crucial to be careful to choose the right products to clean your LCD screen; otherwise, you will risk the damage by scratches with the wrong product. Using white vinegar and water is very useful in helping you have a perfectly clean screen.

First, you take a cloth impregnated with white vinegar and clean the edge of your screen with it. You must be careful not to reach the screen, or you risk damaging it. Then take a bottle and pour in the same amount of water and vinegar. Grab another piece of cloth or a clean cloth to dampen with the mixture.

Be careful not to pour too much. Gently clean your screen to get apparent picture quality. Finally, use a third dry microfiber cloth and gently rub your screen.

4. Use a micro-fiber cloth

These cloths will be perfect for cleaning your LCD screens! They will remove dust well. The first thing to do is to turn off your device so that the stains are apparent. Then, you simply need to lightly rub your screen with the microfiber cloth until it is obvious.

However, be careful not to squeeze too hard. This solution is also perfect for removing dust from an LCD screen.

5. Make a mixture of water and vinegar

Mix equal parts of water and vinegar. Soak a cloth and wring out well. All you have to do is wipe your LCD screens with your fabric.

6. Just use a little water

Moisten a soft, clean cloth and lightly run your cloth over your LCD screen. Be careful not to wet your screen too much. Otherwise, your LCD screen will be damaged.

7. Turn everything off before cleaning

When washing your LCD screen, it is essential always to turn off the device in question.

8. Always clean with a cloth

Never pour liquid directly on your screen! Always use a soft cloth. Otherwise, you could seriously damage your device and LCD screen.

9. Do not use gel or cleaning spray

These store-bought products cause more damage to screens over time. Better not to use them.

10. Let your LCD device cool down

Before cleaning the LCD screen of one of your devices, be sure first to turn it off, unplug it or remove the battery and wait at least 5 minutes before cleaning.

11. How to remove scratches from LCD screen?

Your LCD screen is often scratched even though you’ve been careful. There are solutions to get you back to having a smooth, clean screen again.

For a significant scratch cleaning on your LCD screen, the use of the right products is necessary. Petroleum jelly is excellent for helping to hide scratches.

The use of this product is simple. You just need to take a cotton ball soaked in petroleum jelly and let it act on the scratch.

12. Use warranty and repair kit

Massive scratches on an LCD screen are often almost impossible to remove. In the best case, the adequate solution is to have it changed if it is under warranty.

Trying to repair it yourself may damage your device, and it will no longer be covered by warranty. You can also buy repair kits to fix the problem if you don’t want to have it changed.

 

Avoid:

  • Avoid using paper towels or wipes so as not to scratch your LED screen or LCD screen. Instead, use clean microfiber cloths. The material is the same as the cloth used to clean eyeglass lenses.
  • Do not directly apply the cleaning liquid on your screen, pour a few drops on a cloth. Also, do not use alcohol or other abrasive products. The ideal is to clean your screen dry unless it is essential.
  • When cleaning your screen, do not apply pressure on it and gently.
