I have a 2016 MacBook Pro. This problem has been driving me insane! Where it says “MacBook Pro” on the glass panel under it where it folds when you close it, There’s a whole bunch of dust, specks, crumbs, etc. I can’t get it out no matter how hard I try. I used some Pre-Moistened Isopropyl Alcohol wipes that did not work. I have some Dust-Off but It only got some off. I don’t know how to get it out.
MacBook Pro 13″
You need to be extremely careful since those are the cables for the display near the center area. The actual display cables are covered by another mylar layer to protect them, but they could be damaged if pulled in the cleaning or if they are punctured.
Take something like a paintbrush to try to brush away the debris, but be careful not to pull the cables in the center. You won't be able to get it completely clean.
You can provide Apple with product feedback here:

Thanks for the feedback, Actually the display is broken on my MacBook Pro.. Kind of. This was not recent, It happened a few months ago. When I put my display past 90 degrees, It shuts off. It's due to a issue with the backlight cable. There is a free repair if you have this actually but I'm not eligible because when I bought this MacBook and when the issue happened. 13-inch MacBook Pro Display Backlight Service Program - Apple Support. So yeah, I have to use my MacBook at a 75 degree angle because I sometimes accidentally push it. Unfortunate.
