It’s so easy! Follow these simple steps using household products and you can keep your TV screen clean and in perfect condition. No need to worry about damaging it!
Keeping your TV screen clean not only improves picture quality, but also prolongs the life of the device.
However, many people fear damaging or scratching the screen when trying to clean it. The good news is that there are safe and effective home methods to keep your TV in perfect condition.
Here is a step-by-step guide to clean your TV screen without damaging or scratching it, using homemade products.
1. Prepare a homemade cleaning solution
To clean your TV screen safely, you can create a homemade solution using common ingredients that you probably already have at home. Here’s a simple recipe:
- Ingredients:
1 cup distilled water (avoid tap water to avoid mineral residue).
1 teaspoon of white vinegar (optional, for extra cleaning power).
Mix the distilled water and, if desired, the white vinegar in a spray bottle. The solution is mild and safe for most screens.
2. Turn off and unplug the TV
Before you begin cleaning, be sure to turn off and unplug the TV. This not only ensures your safety, but also makes it easier to detect smudges and fingerprints on a turned-off screen.
3. Use a microfiber cloth.
Never use paper towels, rough cloths or rags that can scratch the screen. Instead, use a clean, dry microfiber cloth. These cloths are ideal for cleaning delicate surfaces without leaving lint or streaks.
4. Apply the homemade solution
Lightly spray the household solution onto the microfiber cloth, not directly onto the screen. It is important not to saturate the cloth to prevent the liquid from seeping into the edges of the TV.
5. Wipe in a gentle motion
With the damp cloth, wipe the screen with gentle, circular motions. Avoid pressing too hard to avoid damaging the screen. Work from the center to the edges, paying special attention to areas that may have smudges or fingerprints.
6. Drying and finishing touch
Once you have cleaned the entire screen, use a dry microfiber cloth to remove any moisture residue and give it a shiny finish. Make sure the screen is completely dry before turning the TV back on.
