How do you clean your monitor?

My method is to use soft tissues like Kleenex. I use two, I soak one with water, I wipe the stain, and then I use the dry tissue to wipe it clean. Sometimes it takes me several times using the wet and dry ones to clean the display perfectly. Any suggestions?!

microfiber cloths are the shit, I've got a bunch of gigabyte branded ones from a tech expo, and they work great for display cleaning and touchups of aluminium and other materials

You have to use some kind of cleaning fluid to properly clean them, not just the cloth, correct?

hi mat1926 

i dont no were your from so unless your in australia this may not apply to you, but i a micro fiber cleaning cloth and spray from a store in australia called ebgames today to clean my tv and monitors and it worked really really well.

i have no idea whats in the spray but seems to have done a really good job and the cloth is big and was able to get marks and gunk that was on them from moving house of easy.

i would guess its just water mixed with something. it dried fast and didnt leave lines once dried.

you could use a micro fiber cloth and water in a spray bottle just be careful you dont spray to much.
