We spend so much time with our electronic devices and it’s
the most overlooked in the cleaning process. So today I’m going to show you how
to clean and disinfect some of the electronic devices So keep on watching! Here
are some the basic tools that you will need for this project A Microfiber cloth
It’s the finest of all fibers making cleaning small areas, even areas invisible
to the human eye possible. Rubbing Alcohol also known as Surgical Spirit Some
Cotton Pads A Cleaning Brush Some Q-tips And some Toothpicks How often do we
clean our cell phones? Let's face it, it’s literally covered with bacteria from
fingerprints, sweat, and even makeup residue which is hard to see. Although
wiping down your device with the edge of your shirt or smudging the screen with
your fingers may certainly seem to tidy up your display but, there are far
better methods to thoroughly clean your device. So here's how to clean your
cell phone To clean your display, turn off your screen as this allows you to
see the dirt better.
Using a toothpick lightly clean around the edges your
phone, that’s where most of the dirt is filled. Then just go ahead and wipe out
the dirt with a cloth Fill a spray bottle with water and just add about 2- 3
drops of rubbing alcohol Shake it well once you are done So just lightly spray
the solution on a microfiber cloth and gently wipe all over your entire phone Germs
don’t just bread on phone but also on the phone cover so make sure to clean
that as well. Do this once a week, but for daily cleaning, you can just use a
dry microfiber cloth The same method applies for laptop &
computer screens as well. Next up is the keyboard the most neglected electronic
device. Dust, dirt, fingerprints and even spilt food particles provide a home
for bacteria to thrive on your keyboard.
I'm going to show you 3 ways to get rid of tiny crumbs and dirt out of keyboard.
The 1st one is using a cleaning slime. I got this one from Amazon You need to
press a glob of slime against the keyboard and dab wherever you are trying to
clean. Because of its sticky properties it will easily pick up dust, lint or
any tiny crumbs. The other way is using a mini vacuum, which I also got from
Amazon Just plug it straight into USB port without requiring any external power
source. Press the Power button to increase the suction power, for vacuuming
heavier dirt and dust. If you don’t wish to invest in any of the above then just
turn the keyboard upside down and gently tap on the back side to remove the
dust. Next use a soft brush, for gently getting into tiny crevices. Use a
cotton pad dipped in rubbing alcohol to go over the surface of the keys to
remove the dirt over it.
Give it a good wipe and you will see that the keys
look clean and shiny Then use a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol and clean in
between and around the keys. You will instantly see the difference You probably
use your earphones all day, listening to your favorite tunes, but did you know
how gross they can get after they’ve been in and out of your ears, and in and
out of your bag, picking up dirt, bacteria and ear wax along the way. So here’s
a quick way to clean them up. Take a toothpick and start by cleaning the wax
out of the ear bud Once that’s done, if you still see a waxy buildup, dip a
cotton swab in rubbing alcohol, tap it off and then wipe the bud to remove
anything remaining. Go ahead and wipe the outer area of the ear buds with the
alcohol-dipped cotton pad Also don't forget to clean the wire of the earphone
as well Be sure to clean your earphones at least once in 2 weeks Keeping your
electronics clean will not only extends the life of your devices but also
improves their overall performance. So do keep these tips in mind Until next
time stay tuned and stay Glamrs.
