Here's a further hint on micro-fibre cloth usage.
Often, they have quite enough bite to be used dry, and water is something we don't want to get near our electricals, let alone our electronics, anyway.
What about when you need that bit extra; a damp cloth? Getting a microfibre cloth
wet, quite apart from the safety aspects, actually seems to reduce its effectiveness. Wetting it, and wringing out the water
still leaves too much. This is what I do: run a little water into the sink, let it run away, so that the bottom of the sink is wet, but no standing water. Put the cloth flat on the remaining film of water --- and you have a nicely
dampened cloth.
I always have a microfibre cloth on my desk, and its top two uses are:
1. Keeping the spectacles clean. Usually dry, but occasionally with a slight squirt of lens cleaner.
2. Mouse. Collects grunge underneath --- rub it over the m-f cloth. Also gets the grease off the mousepad.
Oh, there's the screen as well, of course. Whatever cloth one uses the danger is scratching.
Keyboard? That's where I store my favourite bacteria
