Default Monitor cleaning -- Holy Shat

After trying shnapps, rubbing alcohol, cement, concrete, water, brandy,
steel wool, and a few other things, I've decided the best method for
cleaning the monitor is to get a new monitor!

What a thread that turned out to be. But, I do thank *all* of you for your
input.

Use the little micro-fiber cloths that eyeglass people give out/sell.
My Raymarine radar came with one as well. Works surprisingly well,
even without liquids of any type.

Use 'em on my camera lenses all the time - they are great.

Little warm water helps too.

The micro-fiber cloths are great, but I wouldn't use them dry on a plastic
surface.

Yes! Micro fiber with a few drops of water did the trick. It even washed
off all the concrete. Great stuff.

Thanks!

I used a few drops to dampen the cloth. It worked well.

Thanks

Just make sure it's suitable for cleaning optics. A fair bit of "micro
fiber" cloth out there is actually fairly ABRASIVE. Stick with stuff
designed for cleaning camera lenses and the like and you're much better off.
And whatever you do, do NOT go near it with any sort of "cleaner" that's not
specifically designed for the purpose. Many cleaners have solvents that
will make matters worse.
