How to clean a TV screen? Try these 3 tips
To ensure your TV screen's longevity and clarity, regular cleaning is essential as screens gather dust which can cause short-circuits, and fingerprints that attract more dust. HG screen cleaner offers an optimal solution, allowing you to clean Plasma, LED, TFT, or LCD screens without causing scratches or streaks, and applies a protective coating to reduce dust attraction.
For alternative methods, use a soft, lint-free cloth moistened with lukewarm water or a glasses cleaning cloth to safely remove dust and grease without harming the screen's protective layer. Avoid using vinegar, spirits, or glass cleaners as these can damage the screen's coating. While these non-HG solutions may help, they do not guarantee the same level of protection or effectiveness.

Cleaning tv screen: 3 tips
Do you need to clean a TV screen? Various tips are shared on the internet. HG selected a random number of tips that could help to prevent a dirty screen.
1. Cleaning a tv screen with water
- Switch off the screen.
- Moisten a soft lint free cloth with lukewarm water.
- Wring out the cloth properly: it should not drip.
- Wipe it carefully over the screen to remove dust, don't press too hard
Squeeze the cloth and make sure that you don’t have drops in the edges of the TV. They cause a short-circuit.
2. Cleaning a TV screen with a glasses cleaning cloth
A glasses cleaning cloth or microfibre cloth does not contain moisture and has been developed specifically for removing grease and dust. It is a safe and effective way to clean your screen.
3. Avoid vinegar, spirits, glass cleaner and all-purpose cleaner
Many websites recommend cleaning a TV with windex, cleaning a TV screen with vinegar, methylated spirits, glass cleaner or all-purpose cleaner. Do not use those products. They contain aggressive substances that affect the protective film on your screen. Only use water, a microfibre cloth (never use spray bottles) or a product that has been developed specifically for cleaning screens. It means your television or computer lasts longer.
