Never ever spray or drip any liquid at or onto your Mac’s screen!īefore you start cleaning, your Mac should be powered down, and it shouldn’t be plugged into a charger or power cord either. You can use 70% isopropyl alcohol if you want to use a cleaner other than water, but that should be applied to the cloth you’re using, not the screen. According to Apple, it cannot contain acetone, solvents, ammonia, abrasives, or hydrogen peroxide, and the cleaner shouldn’t be a window or household cleaner.

You can use a cleaning product as well if you want, but you have to be very careful about the ingredients in the cleaner. To make sure your microfiber or polishing cloth is clean, hand wash it with dish soap, rinse it thoroughly, and let it hang dry fully before using it on your Mac’s screen. If you have nano-texture glass on your iMac for reducing glare, you’ll only need the polishing cloth that came with your computer, or you can buy one from Apple. You actually only need two things to clean your Mac’s screen: a clean microfiber cloth, and a little bit of water. Those cleaners have chemicals in them that can cloud or damage glass, even though they clean an LCD screen well. This means you can’t use LCD monitor wipes or sprays on your Mac screen to get it clean. The screens of iMac and MacBook computers aren’t plastic, like LCD screens like you might find on a PC monitor or laptop. Before you start cleaning your Mac’s screen, it’s important you know what materials your screen is made of and what kind of cleaning products work on it.
