Hey, so I bought a screen cleaner and is it ok to use It on my MacBook? Here it is, can you tell me if it contains alcohol or anything that's not suitable? I think it doesn't but can you tell me because I am not sure and I want to be sure before I use it. Also don't tell me Apple recommends not to use screen cleaners-how do I remove stains with just a moist cloth-absolutely ridiculous.

I highly don't recommend to use these products on your MB or any electronic devices to clean your screen. Instead of this spray cleaners, you can use cleaning wipes. They are much safer and with the small amount of pressure you can remove stains safely.

For example:

Ok thanks! I might get those. Also what if I spray the spray on a microfibre cloth and then wipe with that? Isn't it the same? Like are you recommending the wipes just because I shouldn't spray this directly on the screen(which I won't) or does it contain chemicals which the wipes don't?

Sorry for the late response. The spray will likely do damage to your screen or don't but we don't want to take that risk. MB screens are very sensitive.
