Faint white spots on macbook pro lcd screen




By roblu on Sep 18, 2008

" "
Dear experts,
I own a macbook pro 1.83 GHz Intel (one of the first releases - year 2006) and I recently noticed some brighter spots located at various positions in the LCD screen. They look like faint fingerprints, but I cleaned the screen several times, and it seems they are due to some LCD defect? The macbook pro is too old for the warranty... Is there a way to get rid of the spots?
Thank you!! Rob

If the spots remain in the same place I'm sorry to say no. Be careful what you clean the screen with. I'm a fan of a warm wet damp only rag. Using alcohol or other cleaners may damage the surface. There are also cleaners available at local stores. You don't need anti-static on an LCD display. The spots can be from pressure on the display applied at some point even if that pressure happens when closing or transpoting your laptop.There is no way to fix it.
