Express shares effective life hacks to help keep your screen in perfect condition.
Simple secret to impeccable cleanliness
Streaks on the TV screen can appear for various reasons - dust, fingerprints, water droplets, or grease stains. These can be removed using a mixture of equal parts distilled water and vinegar.
This solution effectively dissolves the dirt, leaving no streaks and not damaging the screen’s coating. Vinegar is a natural cleaner that helps eliminate greasy stains and marks left after water dries.
Preparation for cleaning
Before starting the cleaning process, it's important to follow a few safety precautions. First, unplug the TV to avoid the risk of electric shock. It's also advisable to disconnect other nearby electrical appliances to prevent any accidents during the wet cleaning process.
Step-by-step cleaning process
Start by gently dusting the screen surface with a dry microfiber cloth.
Next, prepare the cleaning solution by mixing equal parts distilled water and vinegar in a spray bottle.
Then, spray the solution onto the cloth (not directly onto the screen!) and gently wipe the TV surface with light, non-pressing motions.
Additional tips for a better result
If streaks remain on the screen, try wiping it again with a clean, dry cloth. For more stubborn dirt, start by using just distilled water, and then add vinegar if needed.
The key is not to oversaturate the cloth, as excess liquid could seep into the TV and cause malfunctions. Regular cleaning will help prevent the buildup of dirt, making it much easier to maintain your equipment.
