    Also be careful because if you put too much pressure on your monitor you can create a light, dark, or dead pixel

    Tip when you get a new monitor use keep the little loose foamish plastic bag that it comes in and put it somewhere so when you don’t use your PC for a amount of time just slip it over and then you will have like 90% less dust on your monitor even before you clean it

      Try to avoid using alcohols like isopropyl on screens, especially on the newer screens of today, which tend to be more fragile to those substances than older or mobile devices with glass or plastic screens. You can still get away with using it, but you run the risk of killing pixels.
