Cleaning the macbook

[halisray]

Hey guys, new user here.

What is the best method in cleaning the macbook screen? And the same for the macbook keyboard and palm rest?

I used to have a black laptop, now it is white, so i can see a lot more stuff lol

thanks for the help

For the screen use the black cloth that came with the macbook.
If you don't have it you can use the leather "smammie" style towels sold
at Wal*Mart. Chamois cloth.

By the way, the original Mac one, the black one, is machine washable for those who didn't know.
If you have neither, use windex and a paper towel. Amonia free or whatever.

For the palm rest and keyboard, a lightly damp Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works absolute wonders.

some say a 50/50 mixture of rubbing alcohol and water works good.

I glued a cotton ball to the head of a battery powered fan that had lost its blades to the cat. I generally find you can make the case look as good as new if you slightly dampen the cotton bud, then buff the machine one panel at a time.
