Cleaning screens
Recently got my first LCD monitor and a brand new laptop. Due to a combination of kids and cats, they are both covered in finger/paw prints and could do with a bit of a clean. I'm a bit aprehensive about squirting Mr Sheen onto them and giving them a good rub with a yellow duster so I'm asking you lot as to the acceptable way of doing it.
OK, it might not be a huge computer problem but nevertheless...

Any computer retailer should be able to sell you a kit to do this.
DON'T use Mr Sheen or similar as this leaves a residue

Newer and better LCD screens have a thin sheet of glass, but the majority have a soft plastic film and and even slight pressure can do harm, so whatever you use (for me, monitor spray or scrren wipes) be CAREFUL

Micro Fibre Lens Cloth for glasses ..... soaked in warm water and squeezed dry(ish) ..... perfect for my LCD ..... I'm told it's important that the screen is 'off' and 'un-plugged' from the mains ....
It works for me ....
