So after much putting off, I bought the Radtech cloth to protect the screen of my 13" MBA, and so far it is doing very well.

That said, I did kind of put off getting it, and it has been getting squished in my bag with all of my books and such, so today when I was trying to clean the screen a bit, I noticed that the keyboard well and the top of the trackpad have left a slight, barely noticeable line on the screen. Seriously, you need to have the screen completely dimmed or off to see it at this point, so its not that big a deal.

Of course, I tried to scrub it out with some cleaning fluid and a cloth, but it's still there; any ideas for cleaning, or is this a repair thing? would the warranty cover it? and is it even worth the time & trouble?

thanks!:D

If you can barely see it and the screen needs to be dimmed just forgot about it, but if it really bothers you just clean it with iklear
http://www.amazon.com/Klear-Screen-...U6OI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1298847781&sr=8-1
dont be afraid to use a little pressure it should come off.

thanks, yeah, its not a big deal really, and I have some iKlearm but can't find the large size cloth I had, just a small one that is kind of gunked up- I'll make a renewed effort to find it, we'll see what happens!

thanks!
:D

Nothing beats a clean microfiber cloth & rubbing alcohol. Easy, fast, inexpensive & versatile. Its the only way to avoid leaving residue behind. It will remove what iKlear won't.
