news 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?
