I don't really remember that our sweat is acidic or contains acidic substance. Most likely it is dirt from our skin mixed with sweat and cause sediments to accumulate on the aluminum surface. The surface is matte and it has good chances for holding dirt over long period of usages.

The usual recommendation, a damp lint cloth and soapy water to clean it. It dirt has been there for months, then its time to use a stronger agent like 50% alcohol swaps or something of similar nature.

Like to know where did you get the mirror screen protector for the macbook. Thanks

can go speedy-video shop and buy those VCR head cleaner alcohol. Very mild and good for removing stains and dirt from the aluminium surfaces.

No need to pay premium price from those Apple retail shops too

eraser, yes! eraser. just get some better quality eraser and rub will do. clean, cheap and efficient.

Talk about screen protector, is it necessary to get one for macbook? Anybody here using screen protector for your MB or MBP? Like your opinion about it.

Nay, I think buying SP for MacBook is kinda a waste of money After all, the screen is not exposed when you keep it in ur bag unlike ipod or other gadgets. So, better save the money for other accessories

Its glass for the Alu Macs. You need something higher density than glass to scratch it by accident. Example: Diamonds or Ruby.

mine no scrathes, but got markings of keypads from the keyboard protector

Heard from someone tat u only put the keyboard protector while ur screen is open
But
REmoved the protector when ur screen is closed
to prevent markings on the shiny screen

or

according to some forumer
dun removed the keyboard protector
but put the piece of cloth like material over it when u wan to close the screen
tis will prevent markings
