Question Cleaning Navigation System Screen

I was letting a friend check out my new G35 last night and he wanted to play with the nav system. As soon as it raised up he asked, "Wow, is this touch screen?" and proceeded to start pressing on the screen. Needless to say, my nav screen is now covered in finger prints.

What can I use to safely clean the screen?

Thanks in advance - the finger prints are driving me crazy!

I think the screen is plastic. I'd probably try your favorite window/glass cleaner along with a microfiber towel and very light pressure. I'd try spraying the cleaner onto the towel to see if that's enuf to get the prints off.

They key is very light pressure as you obviosuly don't want to scratch the screen.

DON'T use glass cleaner!!!!!!!
The screen is LCD, just like a laptop's. Glass cleaner has stuff that will harm the material. Get the stuff that's specially made for LCD screens. I use one made by Kensington called Screen Guardian.
