And it’s not just the cleaners you need to be aware of kitchen towels or paper towels could also cause scratches and leave the screens covered in lint. Keep in mind that using harsh chemicals on these screens could ultimately damage or even ruin the television or computer. When the screen is dark it will be easier to see the dirty areas. One of the most important steps to remember is to turn the device off before you begin cleaning. Likewise, a plasma display panel (PDP) is made with small cells that contain electrically charged ionized gases-the plasmas. The make-up of an LCD monitor or screen, however, features a special type of material that is sensitive to chemicals, such as a glass cleaner.
LCD televisions are also thinner and lighter than CRTs. Much of what’s on the market today has a liquid crystal display, or LCD, monitor that produces images.
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) TVs of the past (like the big 1980s-style sets you may recall) had a thick glass screen that was relatively safe to wipe clean with paper towels and window cleaner. Most of the TVs found in homes today have flat screen monitors and are quite different compared to screens on older models.
