How To Properly Clean Your Monitor And Computer

How do I properly clean my monitor and computer?

How you clean your computer monitor depends on what kind of monitor you have. If it's a CRT monitor that looks like an old TV, you can use alcohol or you can use a damp cloth with water. It really doesn't matter because it's a glass surface, so as long as you don't scratch it, you should be good. When it comes to LCD monitors, don't use alcohol. Use a damp sponge, a damp piece of cloth, and you can just wipe the dirt off. Alcohol actually damages the LCD screens. You can be a lot kinder on your peripherals - your mouse, your keyboard, your printer. They gather dust just like any surface does, so just use a cloth to dust the dirt away. If you've got a dirty keyboard, just use a damp cloth and scrub gently away at the dirt.
