Get a good microfiber cloth....in fact, get two. These are made not to scratch. Wipe the outer plastic surfaces with the cloth either dry or slightly dampened with a very mild and diluted dish washing soap. For the screen, just knock the dust off as needed with a dry cloth and canned air. If it gets spots from accidental touch, sneezing, etc., you can dampen the microfiber slightly and wipe without pressure. Do this as little as possible. You'll probably find that even a moderate amount of dust on the screen won't be noticeable with the laptop turned on. You'll see it with the device off and when viewing at an angle. It's not important to be obsessed with removing the dust. These screens are dust magnets anyway. Live with it as best you can.
I received a new Dell Vostro 1510 laptop about 2 weeks ago, nice machine. The lid has a low gloss finish and is also a major fingerprint magnet. I'd like some advice on what type of product to use to keep the lid clean.
Could I use something like Endust Electronics Spray Cleaner or 3M Electronics Spray Cleaner with a clean tee shirt, no paper towels? Also I have the anti-glare lcd monitor screen, what kind of product should I use to keep the screen clean?
Previously I had a Dell Inspiron 1300 and once, only once I used Windex and a paper towel. I later realized that was not a good idea because when I finished cleaning the screen on that computer it looked like I had taken an S.O.S. pad to it. I don't want to make the same mistake with this new computer which is much nicer than my older Inspiron 1300 was.
