    If you're the proud owner of an OLED TV, you know how important it is to keep that stunning picture looking its best. But let's face it, with fingerprints, dust, and the occasional Cheeto mishap, your screen can get a bit messy. Fear not! We've got you covered with this easy guide to cleaning your OLED TV like a pro.
    Step 1: Gather Your Cleaning Supplies
    To get started, you'll need two microfiber cloths and some distilled water. Avoid using soaps, chemicals, or glass cleaners, as these can damage your screen.
    Step 2: Unplug Your TV
    This may seem obvious, but it's important to remember. Cleaning a TV that's still plugged in is a big no-no.
    Step 3: Dust the Screen
    Use a microfiber cloth to gently wipe away any loose dust or debris. If there are any stubborn particles, you can use a can of compressed air to blow them away.
    Step 4: Wipe the Screen with a Damp Cloth
    Dampen your microfiber cloth with distilled water and gently wipe the screen in a circular motion. Be sure to avoid using too much water, as this can cause streaks.
    And there you have it! Your OLED TV is now looking as good as new. Just remember to plug it back in before you start your next Netflix binge-watching session.

    My gosh I’ve been driving myself nuts trying to clean this thing ! I’m not joking 😂 my husband loves it, my kids love to touch it, & I don’t love how well it cleans up… but this changed the game. I already was using my wet & dry expensive microfiber cloths what more did it want from me ? The circular motion vs the wipe top to bottom is a game changer thank you very much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    use a super fine high quality fibre cloth, and destil water. some regions have poor quality tapwater with desinfective add.
    but if you life in a region with excellent water quality no problem.
    LG sughest making circular movements but i prefer the way it is done in this vid.

    I have an LG OLED and have never used any chemical to clean the smudges off. I tried this method, using just a little Distilled water and two clean micro fiber clothes and no luck. I do see this video was done on a very clean screen and no smudges noted. Can anyone help?

      I just cleaned mine with a dry microfiber cloth. The method in this video won't work on smudges. I went in a circular motion until they were gone. Dude needs to take the plastic off his TV and get it dirty before making videos.

    Distilled water isn't electrically conductive. It's the salt in the water that makes it conducive, which distilled water doesn't have.
    So unplugging seems unnecessary.

      Paper towels are made from wood. Not a great idea over the long term. I don't even like microfibre towels, they are made from melted down plastic pellets. Natural fibre like cotton would probably be the best.
