Oily mobile phone

Hello,
This morning when I opened my laptop, I noticed that it was sliding poorly (it's a Samsung E840), so I put some fine oil on the side to make it slide better.
It sort of worked, but some oil got between my screen and the small glass in front, leaving marks on the device and darkening the screen, so I would like to know how to clean it????
Please help me, I've only had the device for a week and I'm really upset :'(
Thanks in advance
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0

    I'm going through the same thing right now except that it's the bottle of monoi oil that spilled on it. Did you manage to get it off?

      Hi, the same thing just happened to me: the sunscreen leaked in my bag and my iPod was inside, so now I have oil stains behind the screen, I think. What did you do?

      Hi, I've experienced the same thing, and now my iPhone has lots of stains on the screen, I'm barely managing... The speakers are super quiet, it's just a hassle... I'm coming back to this post to see if you managed to fix your phone? Is there a solution please??

    Hi,
    Find a flat-head electrician's screwdriver and take apart your laptop.
    Give it a good wipe with a dry, non-greasy cloth.
    Also, give it a blast with a compressed air can.
    Good luck,
    Best regards,
    Weet

    you shake it violently, you'll see, it will get moist and the water will come out little by little.

      If your phone has fallen into water: put it in rice for 2 to 3 days.
      The rice will absorb the water. As for oil, this just happened to me, and the answers are idiotic and not helpful at all!

      It might just be clipped.

      The easiest thing, in my opinion, is to clean it from the outside and take it back to where you bought it. Say that you have a problem and that you don't understand what's happening.

      If the phone is new, they will cover it under warranty.

    Thanks lol I know it's not smart but I didn't think lol
    but the problem is how to remove this small glass because even with a screwdriver there are no screws so I don't know how to do it.

    Well, if I have no other solution, I'm going to do it lol, but it annoys me a bit because I ordered them online
    No other idea??? Because I saw online that you can change this glass, so it can be removed, right?

    I do think there must be either a "clips" system or a screw system.

    In the case of screws, you need to get a special very small screwdriver and be very careful with the glass.

    open to yours (open your eyes) and watch (and look)

    that's all I can advise you.

    Good luck, unlucky man!

    in the first place

    you're not smart

    in the second place

    clean it with a dry tissue

    but I advise you to come up with a good excuse to get your seller to change it for you
