DIAGNOSIS No. Using alcohol or glass cleaner will permanently damage the anti-glare coating on the IPS panel, creating cloudy patches or stripping the coating entirely.
FIX Use distilled water (or plain tap water in a pinch) on a microfiber cloth. Dampen the cloth, wring it out thoroughly so it's only slightly moist, then wipe the screen in a gentle circular motion. Follow immediately with a dry part of the cloth.
IF THAT DIDN'T WORK For stubborn spots, use a 50/50 mix of distilled white vinegar and distilled water. The mild acidity can break down oils without harming the coating. Test on a small corner first.
HEADS UP Never spray liquid directly onto the screen—it can seep into the edges and damage the electronics. Always apply the cleaner to the cloth first. Press gently; the screen surface is soft.
