When trying to clean your Macbook Pro’s screen, you can choose between wet wipes, dry microfiber cloths, cleaning spray, or a combination of these. But be careful not to use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Instead, use water and a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution on a cloth. Don’t spray the alcohol directly onto the screen. The alcohol will evaporate and leave your screen looking streak-free!

The iMac is an all-in-one device that shares the same screen as the Macbook Pro, so you probably know how to clean your Macbook Pro keyboard, but did you ever wonder how to clean your iMac? It’s a good idea to clean both, because accumulated dirt and debris can cause your keystrokes to be missed on your Macbook Pro as well as make it look dirty. Cleaning the screen is easiest if you can remove it but it’s not too time consuming if you can’t, so here are 4 steps to help you get those displays looking like they did the day you left the store.

Wet wipes

Using a soft lint- free cloth to wipe the display on your MacBook Pro is an excellent way to keep the screen clean. Be careful not to scrub too hard because this can scratch the display’s pixels. After wiping the display with a soft cloth, use distilled water to dampen it. Be careful not to wet the screen too much as this can get into the tiny crevices.

Dry microfiber cloth

You can use distilled water, a microfiber cloth, and a small amount of cleaning solution to remove the dirt from your Macbook Pro’s screen. Be sure to use water at room temperature – hot water can damage the anti-reflective coating of your screen. However, it is best to use distilled water to avoid stripping the screen of its protective anti-bacterial coating. Also, never use disinfecting wipes or 70 percent isopropyl alcohol on your screen, as they can strip the screen’s anti -reflective coating.

Cleaning spray

There are several ways to clean your MacBook Pro screen. One of the most basic is by using a microfiber cloth and distilled water. However, if you don’t have a spray bottle, you can simply dab your cloth into a glass of water. Make sure to wring out excess water before attempting to wipe the screen. Finally, use the dry side of the cloth to blot away any water residue. Using a disinfectant spray isn’t necessary but may strip your screen of its anti-reflective coating.

Avoiding harsh cleaners

Keeping the screen of your MacBook Pro looking its best is important. The bright light from your screen makes it easy to spot dirt and grime. Using paper towels or other rough material may scratch the screen. Regular paper towels and toilet paper can scratch the screen as well. Instead, use a microfiber cloth. You can reuse the microfiber cloth after you wash it. After you clean the screen, use a dry microfiber cloth to remove any residue. Once dry, the screen should look as sparkling as ever.

Avoiding abrasive items

When cleaning the screen of your Macbook Pro, be sure to power it down and remove any accessories. Then, using a soft cloth or a spray of distilled water, wipe away dust and moisture. Use a gentle approach and avoid pushing or rubbing the screen. The screen coating is delicate, so avoiding abrasive materials is vital. This article will show you how to clean your MacBook Pro’s screen without scratching it.

The Apple iMac comes with a cleaning cloth, and it should be enough to keep the display relatively smudge-free. If you find that the cloth is not enough to keep your screen clean, you can consider using an “anti-glare” (or “invisible”) screen protector (following all application instructions carefully) to protect your screen. Lastly, should these cleaning tips fail, you may consider replacing the screen entirely (though this may prove pricier than expected).
