    Default Cleaning laptops....

    What do you all use fur cleaning your laptop? I use a microfibre cloth for the screen and pledge electronic wipes for the lid and keyboard

    Curious as to wether there is anything better as with a £1k laptop I want to keep it in tip top condition and cleaned every night and dust free

    it would all depend on what sort of 'dirt' you need to remove. If you really are going to clean it every night, then get a keyboard membrane, vinyl stickers and so on, or just forget about it because in 2 years its gonna be worthless anyway....

    Hi
    Well when he is out at sea he has to clean the keyboard every morning, after a hard night looking at videos with Mexican midgets and hairy ladies from the 70's.
    I suggest you may need a jet wash or maybe a blow lamp and a bolster.
    Lol

    Ps. I just use aerosol compressed air and a microfibres m8

    Most of the issues you'll get are from dust inside and a reduction in cooling efficiency. Choice is to either take it apart and clean as needed or stick the smallest attachment on a vacuum cleaner (you know the one - the one you use when your misses isn't about) and suck from any air intake/outlet slots. Only issue with this is this can charge the air and potentially damage the laptop, chances are tiny (ive done it several times and no issues) but just giving full info.

    Thanks to blacksheep
