Cleaning Tools

Although many companies have created products to help improve the process of cleaning your computer
and peripherals users can also use household items to clean their computers and peripherals. Below is a
listing of items you may need or want to use while cleaning your computer or computer peripherals.
Keep in mind that some components in your computer may require designated products for cleaning. If
this is the case it will be mentioned in the cleaning instructions.
Cloth: A piece of cloth is the best tool to use when rubbing up a component. Although paper
⚫
towels or tissues can be used on most hardware as well, we still recommend you to rub it with a
piece of cloth.
Water or rubbing alcohol: You may moisten a piece of cloth a bit with some water or rubbing
⚫
alcohol and rub it on the computer. Unknown solvents may be harmful to the plastic parts.
Vacuum cleaner: Vacuuming the dust, dirt, hair, cigarette particles, and other particles out of a
⚫
computer can be one of the best methods of cleaning a computer. Over time these items can
restrict the airflow in a computer and cause circuitry to corrode.
Cotton swabs: Cotton swabs moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are excellent tools for
⚫
wiping hard to reach areas in your keyboard, mouse, and other locations.
Foam swabs: Whenever possible it is better to use lint free swabs such as foam swabs.
