Default Help - cleaning a monitor

I believe if you read further you'll find that " infrequent" use of a
50-50%

solution of the iso-propyl alcohol and water is not a problem.

That's true. The real BIG no-no on plastics is ammonia. That's the main
cleaning ingredient of Windex (the blue one).

How does one clean an LCD monitor. One site said to use a damp
cloth
(water) but no cleaners. I tried that, but ended up with streaks on
the
monitor.

Any ideas?

Note: I may one day put this monitor on my boat. (Whew!)

90-whatever percent isopropyl alcohol. It's what's used to clean them
when
they're manufactured.

That's what everything says *not* to use!

Oh well. New recommendations, old recommendations. Worked for me.


Maybe you're thinking of a CRT instead of an LCD monitor?

No. LCD on my laptop.


Well, I'm glad nothing broke, but seriously, everything I've seen says
*not* to use alcohol. The micro-fiber lens cloth with a couple drops of
water worked very well.
