How to clean Plasma TV screens

Gone are the old glass-surfaced TV screens that you could clean with a glass cleaner and cloth. Nowadays a lot of television sets have plasma TV screens and this means that, inevitably, the care and cleaning methods have to be different.

Here are some ideas on how to take care of your Plasma TV.

 

Don’ts:

1- Use window cleaner. Plasma TVs have an anti-glare coating that may be damaged by the alcohol in the window cleaner.

2- Use paper towels to dust the TV. As soft as they look, paper towels are abrasive and can leave scratches on the surface.

3- Touch the plasma screen with your fingers or any hard object, as this can damage the surface.

4- Use any cleaning spray around the TV. When dusting furniture around your plasma TV, remember to spray the cleaning product into the cloth to avoid any chemical being in contact with the TV.

Do’s:

1- Use a microfibre cloth to dust your plasma TV. It always has to be clean and dry.

2- Use a little bit of washing up liquid if the screen is very dirty. Put warm water in a bawl with a drop of washing up liquid; soak a micro-fibre cloth and rinse it well to leave it almost dry; then use it to clean the plasma screen and immediately after, wipe with a clean and dry micro-fibre cloth.
