Hi Grant, I have often used a damp cloth or towel to wipe down my iPhone and I am not particularly careful with certain areas. When I mean damp I do of course really mean just damp, not dripping wet. I have also sometimes used the cleaning solution and microfiber cloth I bought to clean my LCD TV and computer monitors. Once again I spray just a small amount on the cloth and let it soak in, then I wipe the phone down, front, ba k, sides and so on. It's also not a bad idea to occasionally blow out the connectors if you happen to have a can of compressed air around.

Hello all, I want to keep my iPhone 5 in tip-top shape so was wondering if anybody has any insight on the correct way to clean it. I read the following support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3226 In a nutshell, they tell you to use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth, to avoid household cleaners, and to avoid getting moisture in openings. A couple things I'm not clear about. Firstly, I'm wondering whether a tiny dot of dish soap on the cloth would be okay--not dish washing detergent, but just plain old dish soap. The article didn't really make that clear. It instructs not to use solvants or abrasives, but I guess I'm picturing that to mean bleach, windex, alcohol, shoe polish, that kind of thing as being no-nos. Also, when they say not to get moisture in openings, is it fine to lightly wipe the surface with the lightning connector and headphone jack, or should I completely avoid these areas? Thanks.
