    The best way to clean the screen ? Some water and a t-shirt ?
    This is probably a stupid question but itÂ’s the first time I have a laptop :confused:

    Never ever use a T-shirt.

    We use AM Screen clean gel and microfiber cloths both in-house and on customer machines before they ship.

    And never use a paper tissue! It could make little scratches in your screen!

    Matte or glossy screen? Glossy is easy because there is no coating. I have successfully used a damp soft cloth with a hint of liquid detergent.

    However, my new Zepto has a matte screen. At the moment I have got no further than wiping dust off with a dry soft cloth (old but clean handkerchief). I will try to keep fingers off the screen for as long as possible.
