* nothing else but Scratched!
First we have to understand a diminutive bit of background about Lcd screens to know why we should be faithful when cleaning. Lcd stands for Liquid Crystal Display; which has crystal molecules sandwiched under layers of polarized panels. These panels are normally made of "plastic-like" polymer materials, and like any plastics they can be nothing else but scratched or gouged, even by just your fingernails! That's why cleaning Lcds requires special care while cleaning compared to the old glass Crt monitors!
