iklear products: any good??

[SimonCC]

does anyone use iklear products to clean their t42 laptop displays? im particularly keen on the dry cloth - the iklear micro cloth - as i do not trust sprays, i guess im just looking for an all round soft cloth to wipe my comp down with. Id appreciate some user comments of these products!

the spray is acutally fine, i dont spray it directly onto the display, but onto the cloth itself

I followed all the posts on this topic over time. I got concerned about using Windex (which I had done for eons before I got this T41). I tried denatured alcohol. I used cloths, not paper towels. Here is where I landed.

I take a well laundered, clean, soft towel or washcloth. I wet one corner in clean water. I gently wash the screen, then the keyboard, then I dry it with the dry section. Then I wash the outside and dry it. The keyboard stays particularly clean, and the screen is not only clean, it is streak free and doesn't pick up much dust. Water - the mother of all solvents.

iclear has some nice wipes sealed in foil... takes care of the solvent and cloth issue together.. a package lasts about a year......

thanx guys, im weary of wipes because i find that they streak, water doesnt quite do the trick eithar so maybe ill just use a brilo pad and some toilet cleaner.

but the wipes come in pairs... the wet on does leave some streaks (any wet cleaning will), but the dry one polishes the streaks out... i find the combined system works well, and since you have a fresh one each cleaning, you don't have to worry about a dirty cloth....
