Re: Cleaning LCD Monitor

A drop of washing-up liquid? (tiny drop, or you'll never get it off )

Re: Cleaning LCD Monitor

Just cleaned my monitor, P-E, 'cos I installed Pantone huey (now the colours on my monitor look funny) + used the goodies they provided: Klear LCD/laptop/computer Screen Cleaner, comes in a sachet like a travel wet wipe (which is exactly what it is), then the soft cloth also included. I'm sure these are available to buy on their own, if you want to do your monitor properly

Re: Cleaning LCD Monitor

I wonder if LCD Monitors have the same kind of protective coating as Plasma screens .....only reason I say, is because with plasmas normal cleaning agents damage the coating & it costs £100's to recoat it
