How to Safely Clean an Infotainment Screen

[@AlexGreenwoodUkulele]

You should do a video based on what you do with your towels and cleaning tools after they've been used. Drying towels, cleaning towels, etc. How you clean them for the next vehicle and what you do to clean things like your brushes and wash mitts. Great content as ever!

[@SimonJames-kk3bo]

Yes I’d like to see this also

[@Fox-86]

Agreed

[@cordondrebrandenburg626]

Pls

[@haider7869]

There already is a video made by this channel about towels search for 'man vs washing machine car cleaning guru'

[@pabauza]

CCG, the Bob Ross of car cleaning. Informative and simultaneously soothing

[@FullClipPr0ductions]

I always watch cleaning guru's videos when I want to goto sleep. It's the voice! 😂 Just makes you want to nap its great

[@C0DFR3AK11]

FullClipGaming haha I do the same 😂😂 It really soothing

[@Froztinc]

It makes taking a shit a better experience as well.

[@martinXY]

A nice ploosh towel is ya best friend...

[@connormk6fezangus261]

It’s like David Attenborough voice just soothing

[@DiiZeh_]

We need more full detailing videos, mate! They’re so therapeutic!😎

[@RoobehTunes]

I find a Brillo pad is the best thing for these distraction centers.

[@detailingdiaries6562]

RoobehTunes I use a pressure washer 👍

[@Armelmarcus]

I find that a wire brush also works well

[@jakejohns138]

40 grit sand paper works well

[@smileyguyz]

That takes too long, angle grinder and a flap disc works best.

[@jetskirydr]

Cover in black electrical tape and trim to fit ... plus makes for a safer driver!

[@michaelloftus3576]

A truly helpful video. I have always been a little nervous when cleaning gauges and navigation screens, but not anymore. Cheers Guru.

[@davidtma3449]

I use an exterior detailer spray with a plush microfiber towel. I spray it onto the towel, then gently with barely any pressure, wipe the dust and fingerprints away. Then, I flip onto the clean side and carefully buff off the residue. Now, what's left is a nice a slick finish on the screen :) ... I find this way effective for me. (I also use this method piano black interior trim)

[@MTobin1000]

Here's what works 100% PERFECTLY for me on my Mercedes Benz. Once the infotainment screen is 100% clean and dry (the way you did it at the end) I store inside the left hand door pocket is a "mini-california duster". (The "regular" california duster is for use on the outside of the car.to remove dust) The much smaller interior duster is perfect size and I use it EVERY time I get behind the wheel. I dust the dash, steering wheel, and center console which includes the infotainment system. You're probably thinking ," Man I don't want to have to do that every time..it'll take too long". It really doesn't....It just becomes a rote task no different than taking the car key out of your pocket and turning the key.... I spend less than 10 seconds dusting the dash and center console. Because of that I NEVER have to "clean" my infotainment because I keep up with it and never let it get dirty. I get comments all the time by passengers who say your car looks brand new. It really works. The mini-duster is like $9 at AutoZone or the like. Try it you like it....and you're welcome. :)

[@Mrgreendragon3]

do i sense an guru AUDI A4 cleaning video coming to a screen near us soon ????

[@ali.e7860]

MrGreendragon3 damn it came true 9 months later

[@codbudgie]

Or..... just use a lens wipe. They don't damage lenses which as far more prone to showing up any imperfection.

[@stevenmorgan7864]

Great video Very helpful to me Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge about car detailing with us helping us to take care of our cars better

[@Audittr2108]

Those brushes are superb. Got both the large and small a couple of months back and were well worth it.

[@RogerBaileyOnCars]

What do I watch - cleaning an infotainment screen or the Brazil Belgium ? tough choice !

[@moran68]

[@federicalfred1]

To be honest what i need is a new video of full interior detailing just like the one you did to the GTR. That would be awesome. You do it so greatly.

[@ProBenja5]

I’m not sure about cars but stuff like phones and tablets have an oleophobic coating so you need to be very careful about which products you use.

[@JohnDoe-fs6lz]

Fact

[@HHLoveMyFam]

Voiceover work fantastic. Mesmerizing!

[@steveharrison3740]

Great video. I was contemplating using a vac with the soft brush as you first spoke of but now I will stick with a microfiber like you demonstrated. Thank you!

[@deanbracken]

The gurus confidence on screen is showing. As always, great video sir.

[@Horizon301.]

Honestly just get a microfibre towel and wipe. That’s all that’s needed on VW products and BMW’s as they don’t use cheap screens that scratch easily.

[@BigDaddyACTUAL]

I like the goo usage on removing trapped particles. Not seen it before. Nice.

[@bjornnrojb6174]

😱There is no steering wheel in front of you! 😂 great video! Best regards from germany

[@sanctumbeats]

Björn nröjB lame joke and btw it is RWD.......

[@joevanseeters2873]

Once again, another great and useful video by "THE GURU!"

[@neoamaru]

Hello, i've applied a screen protector on my 11.5 inch Subaru crosstrek's infotainment system, unfortunately the work is of poor quality, is there a safe way to take it off being mindful of the glue residue and how to clean it afterwards? unfortunately i was hoping that the screen protector would help in scratch proofing, but i guess i'm going to have to go the extra mile and care for it myself.

[@chrisluce712]

Great video! Love the new looking Logo...

[@TheCowgirlNiamh]

I think I'd watch you clean anything but such a bonus that it's cars :)

[@MartinHannett_]

What about options to prevent dust landing in the first place? Anti-static coatings?

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi CCG,ive got of some of that slime stuff,aint used it yet though,the brush is good as well,all your videos help,thanks.

[@mikeytotheful92]

Any chance you could a short video of how you store you towels mitts when not in use and how you do your setup of when your cleaning the cars like how Where do you keep the towels and cloths on standby while cleaning when not using them but will use them during the process do you hang them up while not using them while cleaning or do you keep the in a box and then get them out when you need to use them?

[@malreynolds9591]

THANKS for this video. I find it hard to clean these screens.

[@juanfranciscopololabrau7092]

I was searching for asrm and end up here. This is better....

[@SoggyBiscuits1000]

hi there Mr Guru, can you recommend anything for cleaning leather seats? big thanks and love your vids

[@7537kevin]

My touch screen along the top buttons and volume buttons not working after I got my car valeted at the weekend. Of course he’s saying he didn’t clean the apple car place screen. How can I fix this

[@kngkrmson2179]

What about the Meguiars Perfect Clarity glass cleaner: is that one okay to use for cleaning infotainment systems?

[@Frocobo]

I did my TV screens the other day using car cleaning gear. Came out perfect.

[@trainscronce6269]

Do you think a creature edgless from the rag company will be soft enough for the screen?

[@jameswilkinson150]

Great vid fella (yet again!) Do these same rules apply to the R8 slightly plasticy screen in front of the driver? I’m a bit scared to touch it! 🤣

[@CarCleaningGuru]

Are you taking about the virtual cockpit setup?

[@jameswilkinson150]

Car Cleaning Guru yeah, it’s not a "glassy" in appearance as the display you cleaned in the vid. I’ve always been unsure as to how best to tackle it. Don’t want to smear it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not as obsessive about my car as I sound! 😉🤣

[@CarCleaningGuru]

I'd go gently with a plush towel and some glass cleaner which shouldn't smear or scratch.

[@jameswilkinson150]

Car Cleaning Guru thanks matey. Really enjoy your vids BTW. 👍

[@andreibordeianu]

while I had my hopes up while watching your wide my computer screen remained dirty. So I wouldn't call this magic :) jokes aside, nice video! and nice info about the gelatine blob

[@bmwforlife6951]

How do you clean the virtual cockpit without scratching it?

[@whatskrakin37]

My dad bought a 2019 Honda Pilot Touring and I’m only 15 but I love cars and now a lot about them, so I’m the one who always washes and cleans the car. I always clean the infotainment with a cloth that came with the car. My dad used windex on it!!!! IT HAS MARKS ALL OVER IT AND THEY ARENT COMING OFF. I TOLD MY DAD LIKE 5 TIMES TO NOT USE ANY CHEMICAL ONLY WATER. That’s what the guy at the dealership said as well, and now our infotainment is screwed up

[@armandomartinez5492]

What types of marks?

[@whatskrakin37]

@@armandomartinez5492, they were like dried up streaks

If you speed up the video to x1.25 it sounds better 😁

[@ItsRyan.]

Yeah, Very good advice + videos but hard to watch sometimes, he talks far to slow for me doesn't sound natural

[@ItsRyan.]

Omg.. Thank you!! much easier to listen to as he actually sounds like he's talking normal now!

[@mohammadnuruz-zaman9105]

I use a muc off screen cleaning kit, it comes with a plush microfiber and it has anti bacterial properties and anti static too.

[@thewalrusmonger9878]

How do you clean the plastic over the speedometer without scratching it?

Mine has tons of scratches you can see in the sunlight. Same technique?

[@tomdolan2606]

microfibre cloth??

I thought that was Rich rebuilds somehow so I expected a pressure washer infotainment washing ahaha

[@JuanPerez-yy5hr]

Thank you nice video keep the good work up

[@liamcharity3271]

Need more vids I'm finding I watch a lot more Jp details ones for more tips now days

[@CarCleaningGuru]

They just take me ages to put together (this one took 6 days despite being pretty basic) plus there's a multitude of unforeseen circumstances that can knock them back a week or so but rest assured there's always more in the pipeline.

[@Stylinson34]

Hi can you do a video on all your equipment please

[@CarCleaningGuru]

I kind of have.

[@axxxxman]

It would be nice if someone made a really soft vacuum attachment for dusting. I like the technique shown in other guru videos of holding the vacuum nearby while agitating the dust with a soft brush.

[@ZenMaster-ie4dt]

[@steffydog]

Good stuff, thanks

[@mrman17]

I use a cleaner designed for computer monitors and phone/tablet screens.

[@Horizon301.]

mrman17 or just use a microfibre towel. It’s a screen designed for a car not a window

[@shona5512]

Chatta290 Why would a widow dirty a screen so much? She has more important things to worry about.. like her dead husband.

[@Horizon301.]

Shona nice one 😂

[@GordonSlamsay]

Well, I didn't expect you to have neck tats lol

[@milaskilathelab]

Why is this genius not verified on KZbin!?

[@CarCleaningGuru]

I'm verified because I say I am!

[@artieartya]

The jerks at my Lexus dealership brand new car whatever they did they wiped down my 14 inch infotainment screen and it’s full of micro abrasion scratches. I don’t know what else to do.

[@chrismayer3919]

Thanks loads for the warning about the cyber-slop! my Nissan's infotainment screen would NEVER forgive me...OR be the same ever again!

[@spiritusinfinitus]

Hopefully these screens are harder wearing than Macbooks! In any case.. be careful if the display has an anti-reflective coating. Retina display Apple Macbooks suffered from a problem when their coating became damaged and patchy with the use of cleaning solutions and microfibre cloths (forcing apple to extend their warranties for the products affected). Some people not covered had to use various techniques such as isopropynol wipes to totally remove the remaining coating just to make the screen look okay again (minus the anti-reflective properties)

[@aidenp5768]

Beautiful accent!!

[@ral1055]

I loved this

Nice vid guru

[@richardcobern6287]

Just bought a Clio the instructions say to 'use a towel only' and ' not to use wipes' or liquid

[@CarCleaningGuru]

A towel only ain’t gonna shift greasy fingerprints unfortunately.

[@stewills9711]

quick brush off, quick squirt of LCD cleaner liquid from any PC store and wipe with a plush microfiber. done.

[@Schrumbl]

I like to use Koch Chemie Quick & Shine 😉

[@advancelast1740]

Lens wipe - job done

[@Criticalthinking788.]

And safely

[@taol8258]

just use a microfiber suede and add water/soap if needed.

[@Myusernameweak]

What a narration

[@gregor911]

Thanks!!!

[@distant03]

It’s understandable, albeit a bit cheap, that a screen such as the one on this A4, which isn’t a touchscreen, but instead controlled by a swivel wheel on the console, would be made of plastic. Now why would any brand make a car touchscreen out of plastic instead of glass is beyond me. I’m looking at you, Honda, through my civic’s scratched infotainment screen.

[@richardcobern6287]

I was going to use lens wipes but it also says not to use alchohol

[@CarCleaningGuru]

The alcohol can remove anti-glare coatings.

[@Gooshi39]

You actually remind me of the guy off art attack lol.

[@adamkhan5274]

Came across this video as im getting a 2020 audi q7 end if this month.....piano black touch screen OCD hell.....🤯

Or you can just buff the screen with a microfibre for 10 seconds and bam jobs done...
