I can’t speak for everyone but I can tell you what works for me and what didn’t. You wouldn’t be able to tell the difference if you tried. I’ve no reason to think it won’t disappear by the end of the day.Ģ4 hours later: screen is as good as new.
All that is left is a little pea-sized dot for the right splotch. Well, it has been about 15 hours total now of drying, some with the program on, most with it off and the splotches are almost all gone. There seems to be no permanent damage to the screen. But it beats paying $750 for a replacement. It will probably take 4-5 hours total to complete the evaporation. I’ve been running it for about 3 hours now and the splotches are almost cleared up. I put some pillows behind the screen to increase the heat.
It got my CPU A up to a consistent ~80c with the fans obviously kicking on high. The following Python program did the job. I freak out and take my MB to an Apple technician and he tells me it will be $750 to replace the screen but that I can probably just evaporate the water myself by running an intensive process that heats up my MB. So my girlfriend’s daughter accidently spills water all over my Macbook screen leaving huge bright white splotches in the lower right and left corners of my screen.
