29 bucks? What a rip-off. Get out your rubbing alcohol, moisten some paper

For those who aren't aware, don't do this to your LCD monitors. They have
special cleaners for those surfaces. But it's best not to expectorate globs
of calcareous dreck on your computer's visual interface.


You might be able to avoid those streaks if you finish off with clean
newspaper.

Newspaper is ALWAYS "cleaner" than either paper towels or tissues when it comes to cleaning any glass surface.


If you don't have any rubbing alcohol use Windex(tm) ... that's its primary ingredient, and why you should never use Windex on an LCD.

And I do mean real Windex(tm) in the pump bottle, not any kind of aerosol spray and not any of the various knock-offs you can get in the dollar store. Especially anything that advertises "polish" of one kind or another.

That polish is what causes all the crud on a screen -- just like the polish that you get on your windshield from the car wash that causes amazing streaking the next time it rains.
