The evolution of the television has brought us from chunky square boxes first introduced in the 1950's to the thin and streamlined flat panel televisions of today including what was once the holy grail of television - the Plasma.
What is a Plasma Television?
Plasma Tv Brackets
The Plasma's sophisticated technology consists of two thin glass sheets in which plasma gas molecules are trapped. The plasma molecules emit light when electrically prompted to reproduce the images in the screen.
Plasma televisions can be costly not only to purchase but also to repair-so it's important to understand how to clean perhaps one of the most delicate parts of the plasma which directly affects the viewing quality-the screen.
The Problems with Plasma Screens
Although different from a LCD (liquid crystal display) screen, the method of cleaning a PDP (plasma display panel) or plasma screen is similar.
Whether cleaning a LCD TV screen or cleaning a Plasma TV screen, the first thing to remember is to never clean them as if they were glass surfaces.
What "NOT" to do
1. Don't use alcohol based products. Plasma panels are made with a special anti-glare coating and using solvents containing alcohol such as Windex and 409 can damage both the anti-glare coating and the plasma screen.
2. Avoid abrasive material. Because a plasma screen is very delicate, avoid using paper towels, and other harsh chemicals or textures as they can scratch the surface.
3. Don't Spray. Never spray any cleaning solution directly onto the screen, always spray it onto your cleaning cloth.
4. Don't touch the screen. Don't press hard or touch the screen with your fingers-you will leave behind oily smears and/or scratches.
5. Dry it off. Do not leave any excess liquid on your screen.
What "TO" do
1. Always refer to your manual. The manufacturer may detail specific products that are to be used with your particular plasma screen.
2. Pull the plug. Unplug the television from the power source. Give the television time to cool off before you begin to clean it.
3. Dust it off. Using a soft cloth, such as a microfiber cloth, gently wipe the surface of the screen.
4. Use a plasma cleaner. If you must use a liquid to properly clean your plasma, use a cleaner made specifically for plasma screens. Even better, use a natural one. Some plasma cleaners come with an anti-static agent that will help repel dust from the plasma screen.
5. Dry it off. Use a soft cloth to wipe the screen dry.
6. Plug it up. Make sure the surface is completely dry and then plug the unit back into the power supply.
* It's recommended that you refer to the manufacturer's manual before you attempt to clean your plasma screen display. The manufacturer may recommend a particular brand of cleaner to be used with their product. There may also be certain types of cleaning agents that are not to be used.
