What is a good way of cleaning my computer with around the house stuff?

Question

i have a laptop wanna clean the screen and keyboard but dont wanna ruin it..how would i go about doing this?

Answer 1

Listen man, through trial and error I have learned that there are two or three simple things to clean computers with.

Keyboard:  Use q-tips and a hairdryer to get stuff out from under the keys. Works every time.

Screen: Just a dry, clean rag will get things off the screen.

Problem solved my man!

Answer 2

I always use an ordinary spray-on furniture polish. I take a soft cloth, spray a very small amount of polish on it, barely enough to dampen the cloth, then just clean away.

The secret is, don't make the cloth wet, as this could affect the keyboard.

They make cans of pressurized air that are great for cleaning the keyboard of your computer. You press the button and gently blow away dust and other crumbs and stuff that gets in-between the keys.

I also use a very gentle fox-tail (a soft hand-held broom) to gently dust off and clean the keyboard.

They make little wipes that are great for the screen, or you can use a very soft paper towel, spray it with a little windex, and using the now-moist towel gently wipe the screen. I like to take the towel and then very gently wipe down the keyboard.

Sometimes I just flip my open laptop upside-down on my lap and gently shake or bounce it to get some of the loose debris out.

Key word with everything is GENTLE!! :-)

Hope I was helpful!
