Macbook screen care My MacBook screen is covered with stains or streaks (when it turned off and supposed to be black). It might be caused by silicone keypad and by my cleaning the screen with a damp cloth. The question is what to do? Can it be fixed?

Suddenly a 2 3 drops cleaner flowed into it i hurrily wiped it with tissue and thought it was wiped totally then suddenly the screen went black probably short circuit.
