Physical Screen Cleaner

Laboratory-grade maintenance mode. Utilize high-contrast canvases to reveal micro-dust, streaks, and oily fingerprints.

White Canvas

Reveals micro-dust, lint, and hair fibers.

Black Canvas

Reveals oily smudges and fluid streaks.

Fullscreen mode blocks UI interactions for a safer wipe.

The Science of Display Maintenance

Why Solid Canvases Matter

Cleaning a display while it is showing complex imagery (desktop or video) makes it impossible to see localized oils or micro-fibers. Our White Canvas uses the full luminance of your backlight to "silhouette" dry particles, while the Black Canvas uses reflection to expose moisture streaks.

Coating Chemical Safety

High-end displays (like Apple Studio Display or Pro Gaming monitors) feature delicate Anti-Reflective (AR) coatings. Solutions containing ammonia or high-concentration alcohol can strip these layers. We recommend using a distilled water-dampened cloth only when absolutely necessary.

The Micro-Scratch Trap

Dry-wiping a dusty screen is the leading cause of permanent micro-scratches. Dust particles are often made of minerals harder than the plastic polarizer layer of your LCD. Always use a blower or a very soft brush to remove loose debris before applying any physical pressure with a cloth.

OLED Surface Sensitivity

OLED panels often use softer outer layers to maintain flexibility and thinness. When using our Screen Cleaner mode on an OLED, avoid circular "scrubbing" motions. Instead, use long, single-direction strokes to minimize heat and friction on the organic stack.

Display Cleaning FAQ

Can I use 70% Isopropyl Alcohol to clean my screen?

Most modern manufacturers advise against it for daily use. While it disinfects, it can cloud the AG (Anti-Glare) coating over time. If you must disinfect, apply the alcohol to a cloth first and test a tiny corner of the bezel before proceeding to the panel.

Why do streaks appear after I wipe my screen?

Streaks are usually caused by either a dirty microfiber cloth or using too much liquid. Use our Black Canvas mode at 100% brightness to see these streaks. Switch to a dry, clean section of your cloth and use light pressure to buff the streaks away.

Is it safe to clean a screen while it's turned on?

Yes, provided you are using our tool. The main risk of cleaning an active screen is "accidental input" or "electrical shorting" from liquid ingress. Our tool provides a static field to prevent UI interaction, but you should always keep liquid away from the screen edges.

What is the best cloth for cleaning a 4K monitor?

A high-density, "split-fiber" microfiber cloth is the gold standard. Avoid standard kitchen cloths or old T-shirts, as the weave is too coarse and can trap larger grit particles that cause scratching during the wiping process.
