What do you clean your monitor with?

Hi all,

Just wondering what do you clean your monitor with?

I had previously used a microfibre cloth with a tiny amount of warm water on it, but in the direct sun you can see the 'streaks' this leaves on the monitor

What do you all recommend?

Andybird123 do you mean IPA? Or is industrial alcohol spray something else? I have some IPA, water and probably a spray bottle somewhere if that would work but wanted to check what you meant first.

Otherwise I think I'll get the Antec one probably as it seems popular

Thanks!

All I use is a warm wet lint free cloth and then a dry one to dry it off....no smearing

I might save some money and try this as I think I'm very close to getting no smearing with my method, but you can just see a few in direct sunlight

Think I need a second cloth to quickly wipe it away with

Will try that

I'll be sure to try this.

Thanks for all the suggestions, might buy the Antec one and see what it's like

Might have to try the IPA/water mix on a microfibre as just warm water seems to be leaving streaks for me. Looks great until the sun shines on it then you can notice the streaks haha

Got a random screen cleaner for the laptop which has a glossy screen and that works fine. But matt screens seem to be harder to get a streak-free finish on
