Hi guys,
Does anyone know how to clean a MBP without having to purchase special rags and wipes from apple. I need to clean the screen (it has not been cleaned in ages) and will have to take off my incase cover to clean around the MBP.
Thanks.
Also, you'll find plenty of suggestions by searching through the many existing threads on this topic.Cleaning your Mac When cleaning the outside of your Mac and its components, first shut down your Mac, and then unplug the power adapter. Then use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the Mac exterior. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. Do not spray liquid directly on the computer. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives that might damage the finish.

Worth knowing that expensive screen-cleaner sold in tiny bottles is exactly the same stuff as glass-cleaner sold in large bottles.

Whether right or wrong, I clean all my apple screens with a microfiber cloth. Looks as good as new.
I love iKlear. The only thing I've used that manages to leave no streaks, marks, or anything of the like. Use their gray cloth also. It's a different kind of microfiber and is awesome! Works great for the glass, the body, and the keys.
