Well boys: we have a touch screen and it's DIRTY!

What do you recommend? Do you think a damp (with water) microfiber towel will do the trick? Obviously I'm not gonna use anything abrasive, but I don't want the fingerprint to get smeared with something ineffective either...

 

Daniel, I use my cleaner that I use for the window tint. It is safe to use on plastics, etc.

 

I've heard that a mixture of 1 or 2 parts distilled water to 1 part isopropyl alcohol makes for a good LCD screen cleaner. Use it to moisten a lint-free cloth and wipe the screen. For what it's worth, Apple recommends this stuff for their LCDs...

I just use a damp cloth though. The klearscreen guys seem mighty proud of their spray.

 

I try to avoid touching the screen at all cost, but sometimes, using the touch-screen QWERTY keyboard is so much faster. I have a small microfiber towel I keep inside the car, for wiping fingerprints (works well), dusting the dashboard, sweeping bits of crap off the center console/shift area, and comes in handy for my eyeglasses, too!

 

Great advices guys!

Thanks.

 

For dust I had been using this pack of dust wipes my wife started using in her car. I dont know what brand they are but they are pretty nice to keep stashed in the door pocket and dust the inside/screen once in a while. Not a great job on the screen though I will try that screen cleaner.

 

I bought a product from Monster Cables i think, its a blue liquid in a spray bottle and come with a micro fiber cloth. I also use this on my plasma screens and it works good. Try looking it up

 

I wear eye glasses for when I drive at night that came with a soft cloth to clean/dust the lenses. I just use that and it works great.

 

Never use an alcohol based cleaner on an LCD, that is a very bad idea as it will eat away at the screen.

It's called Monster ScreenClean and I use it too, it works great. It's very gentle and alcohol free and though it is a little expensive, a bottle will last a long time if you use just one or two pumps directly onto the microfiber cloth. It should be available anywhere that sells Monster products.

 

YUP thats the one!!! Its great and the bottle can last a very long time. That little towel they give you is also very nice.

 

I use a high quality microfiber cloth. I try not to use the touch screen since I can't stand fingerprints

 

After using Stoners on mine, I applied THIS

 

Cool. Just ordered one.

 

they make a 3m cloth thats used to cleaning phoen screens like treos and such. Its the same kind of cloth provided with my lcd tv in my house....very soft, i think it would be perfect for the screen.

 

When you get it, let us know how accurate the fit is for our 07 Nav screen.

Just want to know if it is cut correctly.

hothothot -- maybe you can answer the fit question since you have it already !
