homemade lcd screen cleaner brands

Generic or not, some of the biggest rip-offs in the realm of consumer electronics have got to be cleaning solutions. Why? Because whether they"re marketed to clean your phone, computer screen, keyboard, or mouse, the solution is nearly always water and alcohol.

For just a few bucks, you can make your own, equally effective screen-cleaning solution at home in large quantities. Keep one on your desk, one at home, and one for the road -- and never overspend on glorified water again.

Making this screen-cleaning spray couldn"t be easier. Simply combine one part alcohol and one part distilled water in the spray bottle. Cap it, give it a quick shake, and it"s ready for use.

Note: Please consult your product manual before using this homemade spray. Some manufacturers advise against using alcohol on their products, due to oleophobic coatings. If that"s the case, only use distilled water, or reserve the alcohol-water spray for removing stubborn dirt. Though excess use of alcohol-based cleaning sprays on oleophobic screens may remove their coatings, occasional is certainly acceptable.

The other day, I caught a glimpse of my computer screen and couldn’t believe how dirty it was! I could barely make out the image underneath all the smudges and fingerprints. I knew that I could buy a product to clean my screen with, but I was also pretty sure I could make my own that would be much cheaper, and I was right! It worked so well and was so easy to put together, I just had to share it with you.

A microfiber cloth is one of my all-time favorite cleaning tools, and can do quite a bit of cleaning on its own! Start by wiping the screen with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to remove surface dirt, lint, and oily residue.

I’m still amazed by how well this screen cleaner works—the vinegar cuts through smears and smudges with ease, and you don’t have to use very much pressure either. Give it a try for yourself and you’ll see what I mean!

I’m reading this, looking at my screen and thinking…hum, perfect timing. My screen is gross…okay, you have given me the motivation and swift kick I needed.
