From NASA to your TV Screen!

The folks who make the TVclean LCD screen cleaner says it uses a specially formulated rubber pick-up roller developed by NASA. (So that’s where our money went!) This pick-up roller acts like a magnet for dust and lint particles. Just roll the roller gently across your screen to remove loose unattached particles down to 1 Micron. Just for the record, you can’t see particles less than 15 microns! The TVclean rubber roller stays in contact with a special TVclean adhesive roll. This roll captures the dust picked up by the rubber roller. It keeps the rubber roller clean and captures the particles off your screen. Because the rubber roller is always clean it won’t scratch or mark the delicate surface of your screen. From time to time the TVclean adhesive roll will need to be refreshed by simply peeling off the soiled layer to expose a new one. As Leo learned, don’t press to hard of the roller will pop out! But it’s real easy to pop back in. What the roller misses you can wipe away with the TVclean Microfiber Ecowipes. They’re made of specially woven synthetic fibers. When dampened with ordinary tap water the Microfiber Ecowipes will lift smudges and oily fingerprints leaving a smear free, glossy finish. I found it cleaned LCD screens very well. So did Leo. As a matter of fact even if your screen looks clean, you’ll be surprised at how much dirt you’ll find the roller picked up. It was less successful at greasy fingerprints. Just for laughs Leo run the roller over his iPhone and it shined that screen really well. Price wise, it's really expensive. A kit which includes the TVclean & the Microfiber Wipes costs $49.95!
