No matter the cleanliness of the user,Sexy Sisters MacBooks are prone to occasional fingerprints. Whether they're on the screen, keyboard, trackpad or the outer chassis, there are ways to clean a MacBook and make it look as good as new.

Apple itself provides tips on cleaning a MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air. Take a look at Apple’s support pageif you’re interested. Apple appears to be more cognizant of how smudges affect the user experience. So much so that its latest 'Space Black' MacBook Pro features an anodization sealto resist fingerprints.

While cleaning your MacBook, make sure to indirectly use water and/or a 70-percent isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solution. The latter can usually be found by searching on Amazon, Best Buy, or a local tech shop.

Step 3:To clean the MacBook’s display, use a lint-free cloth. Only use water to dampen it beforehand. Avoid getting water directly on the screen. Gently use the cloth to get rid of smudges and streaks.

Step 4: Go over the exterior and MacBook screen with a lint-free cloth moistened by your 70-percent IPA solution if smudges persist. Again, gently wipe the MacBook.

Step 5: Finally, to clean the keyboard, use the 70-percent IPA solution or a traditional Clorox wipe. Due to the openings surrounding each keycap, ensure the cloth is damp and does not have excess liquid.

For MacBook Pro units with the Touch Bar and Touch ID button, treat both as you would the main display. Indirectly use water and the 70-percent IPA solution if need be.

If excess liquid finds its way inside your MacBook, keep it turned off. You can then seek assistance from an Apple Authorized Service provider or Apple Store. Note that liquid damage isn’t covered under a warranty nor AppleCare.

Following the cleaning process, your MacBook should look good as new and can be powered on.

Note:Do not clean your MacBook with an all-purpose cleaner (e.g., cleaners containing hydrogen peroxide, bleach, aerosols, etc.) Doing so may result in irreparable damage to the MacBook’s finish as well as internal components.
