    Hey guys,

    I noticed I have been getting quite a few smudges and such on my 17 inch Brightview WXGA screen on my dv9010. What do you guys use to clean your screens safely and effectively?

    I use eyeglass cleaner that is for "plastic" lenses.

    Always spray the RAG, instead of the screen.

    PS: (use cloth, not paper!!!)

    You could also use a microfiber screen cleaning cloth, available for around $5.

    Never use a window cleaner on your screen. They sell lcd cleaning kits in the store that work pretty good. You can also use pure isopropyl alcohol, that is what the lcd cleaning kits have in them, if you want to save money.
