cloth without thinking it might damage their screen.
To
avoid any damage to the screen or on the body of your MacBook, always keep in mind that you must use a microfiber cloth.

alcohol solution with a microfiber cloth to avoid damage to the screen. This

alcohol can damage the keyboard or the MacBook if used in excess or if it
reaches the motherboard of the Macintosh. And the user should also keep in mind

circulation of the MacBook by blocking its went, and this helps in raising the
temperature of the MacBook, which is not good for the internal hardware of the
Macintosh.
