Step 3: Use a microfiber towel to wipe down the surface.
Put a microfiber towel in a bucket of cleaning solution.The microfiber cloth should be used to wipe the surface from left to right.To avoid scratching, use very little pressure as you wipe.Don't allow the cleaning solution to sit on the surface for too long.Do not use paper towels, household sponges or other abrasive cloths to clean the panel.The surface will be scratched by these materials.
