I keep a bottle of 70% IPA on hand at all times. Whenever I go from a red zone to a green zone, I squirt a nice big splash all over my hands. For a normal candybar smartphone, it shouldn't be too much trouble to pick up the phone while doing this and treat it like a third hand.
In my case, I own a Cosmo Communicator which has a qwerty keyboard, which means I have to be a little less liberal with the alcohol, and I usually use a tissue. But it still takes less than 10 seconds. Squirt, wipe, done.
- dogma1138 6y agoIPA can ruin the surface of some phone screens, it likely won’t damage the screen itself but the layer that protects the screens from fingerprints and other residue can be washed off with alcohol. That said it would probably still be better than UV as the UV might actually damage the screen especially if it’s an OLED one. Overall if your phone is IP rated some dish soap and a moist cloth is probably the best option.
