Laptop cleaning (safely)

[rosharbt6959]

Hey guys got a "new" MacBook yesterday, decent nick but i really want to give it a good clean, screen, body, keyboard etc..

what would be the best all-rounder solution to tackle this?

cheers.

On everything except the screen, glass cleaner works pretty well. Not supposed to use that on the screen though, just a damp rag, with distilled water. Do not spray anything directly onto the screen though, spray it on your rag, and then gently wipe the screen.

Just make sure that rag isn't TOO damp. If its wet enough that water starts running down your screen, you need to dry that screen immediately, and remove some of the water from the cloth. Water CAN seep down between the seams between the monitor chassis and the monitor itself. I've seen screens with water damage from not being careful about that. ;)

 

I kinda prefer the air can/reversed vaccuum cleaner method for most everything else. And a slightly moist rag with windex for the oil that builds up on the keys.
