    The lid is a challenge to clean without marking it up. The rubber surface is very sensitive so you can't press too hard on it. If it get streaky you can smooth it out with your hand or a damp microfiber cloth. There are screen cleaning kits you can buy but a good microfiber cloth with a tiny amount of water is good most of the time. For the keyboard, touchpad and palmrest spray a very small amount all-purpose cleaner (or windex) on a rag and don't be too violent or you can rip up a key. Don't get windex anywhere near the screen.

    For cleaning the fans, see the g73jh cooling section in the sticky and http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gaming-notebook-forum/532474-get-out-air-cans.html
