Clean Liquid Metal off display

[Benjamin_20]

Ok so I just had probably one of the biggest mistakes I've made. I was playing with some thermal grizzly conductonaught cause I wanted to try out maximizing my laptops cooling. I didn't realize that it was going to super easy to pop out so like I put a little pressure on the back of the tube to squeeze out a little bubble and boom just shot a load all over my monitors.

Aside from the obvious lack of preperation and care taken in this situation I need to try and salvage my screens. I got most of it off with a combination of isopropyl alcohol and paper towels. Right after I cleaned it I googled it and found out I was totally not meant to use alcohol on a display. Anyways there's still 1 mark on one of my screens I've been rubbing with cotton tips and I can't get it off. Any Ideas on what I could do?

So, Rubbing alc is not the best for your screen. I would suggest seeing how your screen reacts to it. If it's kosher after what you've already done, go in and finish the job.

Just be quick and don't let it wick around the sides.

The reason alcohol is not safe for LCD screens is it can take off the anti-reflective coating. If the mark is shiny then continuing to clean it will only make it larger.
