Everyone has a smartphone, a PC and other electronic devices. These objects are now part of everyday life and must be kept constantly clean.

Electronic devices

Many use them just for pleasure, others for work reasons. The fact is that they are constantly touched and handled, so dirt and bacteria dangerous to our health nest there. Let’s see in this article how to take care of our devices in the right way without scratching or ruining them .

The importance of proper cleaning of smartphones and PCs

Without exaggeration, we can say that smartphones and computers are now part of our everyday life. We all have electronic devices at home and it is important to take care of them to extend their life but above all to prevent germs and bacteria from nesting in them.

Like any other object in the house, our devices also need periodic cleaning but it is extremely easy to make a mistake. They are delicate products and easily scratch if we are not careful.

Cleaning may seem like a simple and trivial thing but it is not, it is a procedure for which you need to take the right amount of time and that requires precise steps done only with specific products . Incorrect cleaning could even have the opposite effect and therefore ruin our beloved electronic devices.

In this guide we will give you simple instructions on how to clean your screens properly.

Cleaning Screens: What to Use and How to Proceed

Not everyone knows the right procedures to clean their electronic devices, in fact it is not uncommon for people to carry out this operation in a crude manner, obtaining the opposite effect and even damaging the objects.

This happens not only if you don’t know how to move but also if you use the wrong products.

So let’s start by saying what you absolutely must avoid . First of all there are chemical products such as alcohol, ammonia and acetone. These are great enemies of electronic accessories and can also deform their components. Generally, you should also avoid overly aggressive detergents such as degreasers, limescale removers, glass cleaners and micellar water, because they are not suitable and can contain harmful additives.

Again, don’t even consider paper napkins and makeup remover wipes. Instead, those specifically designed to clean displays are much better and can be found practically everywhere today.

Instead, it is advisable to get a toothbrush with soft bristles , a microfibre cloth and an isopropyl alcohol-based spray or alternatively a mixture of water and white vinegar .

Now let’s move on to the actual procedure, which is very simple whether we are talking about PCs or smartphones. In both cases, it is advisable to remove the dust with a toothbrush or a soft brush, then spray the aqueous solution on the screen and pass the microfiber cloth, being careful not to apply too much pressure.

Finally, dry with the dry part of the microfiber cloth.

The advice is not to overdo it with the cleaning product to avoid infiltration: two sprays are sufficient.
