How to Clean a Touch Screen
Smudges
all over your gadget's touchscreen, or has an evident fingerprint trail
on the latest must-have game you are addicted to imprinted on the
screen? Regularly cleaning your cell phone, tablet, MP3 player's
touchscreen or any other touch screen device is essential for its upkeep
and longevity.
Learn how to wipe away those smudges with ease and how to avoid doing things your touchscreen would not appreciate.Edit Steps
- 1Choose a microfiber cloth. This is ideal for cleaning a touchscreen. Some devices will have such a cloth included or perhaps you can borrow one you use on your sunglasses.
- The cost of such cloth varies. For cloth recommended by companies for their products, the price can be considerably higher simply because of the recommendation. Look around for a good deal on such cloth or substitute with a cheaper but still effective microfiber cloth.
- 2Turn off the device before commencing to clean it. It is usually much easier to see where to clean when the device is switched off.
- 3Give the screen a once over by brushing it with the microfiber in small circles. This will remove the majority of simple imperfections.
- 4Only if truly needed, moisten a cotton cloth, even the corner of your cotton shirt, and repeat the small circular motions. It may actually be enough to just breathe over the screen and use that moisture to clean with.
- Read the instructions accompanying the cloth you're using. Some of them need to be made slightly damp before use. If this is the case, skip this step and follow the cloth's instructions instead.
- If dampening a cloth, it is best to use distilled water.
- 5Brush again with the microfiber cloth to finish off. Don't over-rub though and if there is any dampness left, just leave it to air dry.
- Do not put too much pressure on the screen when cleaning it.
