ive used plastic polish in the past but that probably not the best idea... you can get specialist cleaners for then

I use basic glass cleaner and ether spray light amounts on the screen or wet a paper towel with it. I'm sure people will tell me that's HORRIBLY wrong, but I've done this for many years on many laptops and LCDs without a problem

If you want a better solution, you could always go to a glasses store and find some cleaner that's made for glasses with special coatings and such on them.

PC shops should do specialist wipes. In theory, anything that's alcohol based (I think it's ethanol that's usually used) should be fine.

In fact I think we have all been found guilty of using unsuitable products in the past. I have been known to use a cloth that's been made damp with water, wiped it down, then dried it with a bit of paper towel.

i think isopropyl is also suitable... i cant remember whats in the cleaning fluid i use in work for cleaning screens though

i use vinegar and a lint-free cloth. It works great, and doesnt leave any streaks.

Whatever you do, DO NOT use an ammonia based cleaner.
