How to Clean Your Surface Pro Keyboard and Screen

As you start to use your Surface Pro more frequently, you may notice fingerprints accumulating on the screen and keyboard. The good news is that cleaning them is a breeze with the right materials.

To clean your screen, all you need is a soft fiber cloth and a little bit of water. Dab the corner of the cloth with water and wipe off the fingerprints. Then, use the dry side of the cloth to dry it off. If you use a screen protector, the cleaning process is similar, but you may need to change it every three to six months as it wears and scratches.

When it comes to cleaning your Surface Pro keyboard, you’ll want to be a bit more careful. Since the keyboard is covered in Alcantara fabric, you’ll need a lint-free, soft cloth and a mild soap to clean it. Gently wipe down the keyboard with the soapy cloth, then go back over it with a damp cloth to remove any soap residue.

For the back of your Surface, use the same soft cloth with a damp corner to wipe off fingerprints and dirt. If you’re worried about scratches, you can add a sticker to protect the surface.

Remember, you never want to pour water onto your Surface Pro keyboard. A damp cloth will do the job just fine.

By following these simple tips, you can keep your Surface Pro looking like new. So go ahead and give it a good cleaning!
