Cleaning TV and Computer Monitor Screens |

Both screens accumulate fingerprints, dust and grime as a result of static electricity. With the set or screen turned off, use glass cleaner sparingly. Wet a rag or paper towel with the cleaner rather than spraying it on, to avoid getting cleaner on the cabinet.

Diluted Kleen Green also works well.

i cleaned my crt monitor with alcohol based cleaner swipe with a paper after that i saw a lot of scratches.
RE: Cleaning TV and Computer Monitor Screens
I went to the site for my ViewSonic monitor. These were the instructions for CRT's and LCD monitors.
Cleaning CRT Monitors:
Wipe the screen with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.This removes dust and other particles.
If still not clean, dampen the soft cloth with water.
If still not clean, apply a small amount of non-ammonia, non-alcohol based glass cleaner onto a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, and wipe the screen.
WARNING: Ammonia/alcohol based glass cleaner will damage the ARAG coating. Always spray cleaner onto cloth, NEVER directly onto screens.
Cleaning LCD Monitors:
Wipe the screen with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. This removes dust and other particles.
If still not clean, apply a small amount of non-ammonia, non-alcohol based glass cleaner onto a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, and wipe the screen with only a slight pressure. Too much pressure may damage the screen.
WARNING: DO NOT use water on LCD Monitor
Cleaning monitor case:
Use a soft, dry cloth.
If still not clean, apply a small amount of a non-ammonia, non-alcohol based, mild non-abrasive detergent onto a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, then wipe the surface.
If you don't know whether your monitor is a CRT or LCD, ask your manufacturer or go to the website for the company that sells them.
Hopefully, this will clear up all questions for you. For those who may want or need more information, go to www. ViewSonic.com and click on Got A Question? Then a new window will open where you can type in your question. Happy Surfing!
I'm fabulous! Want to know why? Just ask.

Have you tried using micro fiber cloths?
You can get them here - http://www.furnitureclinic.co.uk/Micro_Fibre.htm
RE: Cleaning TV and Computer Monitor Screens
I know several that have used glass spray and ruined their keyboard and other parts of their computer. Alcohol is the best. If you clean the back of a computer with metal you better make sure you ground it and not touch parts. It will destroy it. but use alcohol and Q tips for the insides of the buttons. Make sure it is off. You don't need it typing across the screen and sending commands.. It is all I have ever used and it is perfect. You know those alcohol wipes that come with meds for injections. They are perfect..Be careful.
Dryer Sheet
Another good idea -- with big screen TVs being all the rage, keeping dust off of it by wiping a bounce dryer sheet keeps the dust at bay.

What can I clean a Big Screen TV with? I have a 2 year old who touches the TV often. Can someone help me?
RE: Cleaning TV and Computer Monitor Screens
Some good ideas, but read your monitor manufacturer's instructions. If you are using a CRT with a coated screen you might want to use nothing but clear water to clean it. That was in the instructions with my NEC 19" monitor and it works well. I have lots of glass cleaners, alcohol, vinegar (my usual glass-cleaning method), and so on, but my monitor's user manual strongly suggested using nothing but water. Read the manual to find out what the manufacturer recommends.

I keep a small stuffed lion on top of my monitor, he looks cute and when I have dust I swipe him across the screen. I toss him in the wash when dirty. I have also kept an old sock in the drawer near my computer for the same purpose, but a stuffed lion is much cuter.
Cleaning the Computer Screen
Keep a bottle of rubbing alcohol and a dry wash rag by your computer, then when the screen gets dirty, put some alcohol on the rag and then wipe the screen clean.
