Cleaning my XBlack Screen?

[Mr_DoughBoy]

Just bought a sony VGNS5XP/B laptop and it has a very little mark on the side of the screen nothing major and I doubt its a scratch since I just bought it.

I was told in store to use the wipes they had which had alcohol in them to remove marks but I thought you were not suppsto use alcohol based wipes on a XBlack laptop lcd?

Ive tried using water with a new cloth I bought (for sunglasses) but this has left watermarks on my screen now.

Thanks in advance.

My vaio screen appears brand new despite being 12 months old and used everyday. My cleaning is once a week using small cup of warm water with just one small drop of washing detergent to break the grease. I then just use a tiny amount of my solution on a new clux and clean using small circles 5sq cm section at a time. It's more like polishing than cleaning. Tiny amount of water works using this method for the whole vaio.

Is it safe to use already made wipes or sprays for lcds? Or will that wreck the black coating on the screen?

[Mr_DoughBoy]

For example is this item safe to use on the LCD?

That's what I use
Now don't panic the first application, it's putting a layer on your screen to stop dust, then the second go it'll look great

Is it very safe to use it with the xblack screens? Im worried that if I use it and it has to put a layer onto the xbrite screen it mite wreck the xblack coating?

It's safe as it's non-alcoholic

Also agree with Mr_Doughboy - this product was recommended to me when I bought my unit and it works great.

As a light-hearted side comment - if there were someway to electrify the screen to disuade all my office colleagues from touching it whenever I show them a presentation or drawing I'd be really happy! That would avoid 90% of all grease marks - LOL!
