Good afternoon,


In my opinion, the best way for you to clean your iPhone would be to get a couple of q-tips, some isopropyl alcohol and a microfibre cloth start by saturating the end of a q tip (you may need to do this mupltiple times with different q-tips) and work around the buttons and speaker grills you need to make sure that you clean up the substance thoroughly or you buttons might stick. Next, spray the cloth with isopropyl alcohol and clean your screen.
