How to properly clean a laptop: three life hacks
SSPDaily has prepared three life hacks that will help you keep your laptop clean and in perfect condition. Learn how to effectively clean your laptop keyboard, maintain a clean screen, and prevent performance issues caused by dust accumulation.
Clean the keyboard
To clean your laptop's keyboard, use sticky tape or a small rectangular piece of adhesive paper folded in half with the sticky side facing out. Move it between the keys, and the stickiness of the paper will capture any dust or debris stuck between the keys.
This method effectively removes debris and dust buildup on your laptop keyboard and reduces the risk of potential damage.
Clean the screen
When cleaning your laptop screen, avoid using glass cleaners or harsh chemicals as they can potentially damage the display. Instead, make a solution by combining equal parts distilled water and white vinegar in a spray bottle.
Lightly dampen a microfiber cloth with the solution and gently wipe the screen in a circular motion. This homemade cleaner is safe and effective, leaving your laptop screen clean and free of dust and smudges.
Ventilation clogs
Over time, dust and debris can build up in your laptop's air vents, leading to overheating and performance issues. To solve this problem, use a clean toothbrush to gently brush along the ventilation slots.
The bristles of the toothbrush will dislodge any trapped particles, improving airflow and preventing overheating. This unconventional cleaning technique helps extend the life of your laptop and optimize its overall performance.
