What should I use to clean the monitor?

#1 Post by teknoT42 » Fri Aug 19, 2005 6:53 pm

I need to buy a product to clean my monitor such as an anti-static cloth or something.
Any Recommendations?

Quite good is micro-fibre cloth for glasses. You can obtain it in every glasses shop for a $1-$10 depending on the quality. I've bought the cheapest one and I am satisfied. I clean with it my LCD, it removes dust quickly. But never ever use any liquid, acid or any other product based on these. It's a LCD killer.

Isopropyl alcohol (90% or greater) and water work just fine on LCDs. Other general cleaning solutions are usually not a good idea...
