No connection to the following company except to say that i have been using
their products for years and are the best i have found to clean expensive screens
Well, for all monitors, whether CRT or LCD, you don't need any of that stuff.
For years I've been using plain old warm water.
I have a sponge I use exclusively for my monitors. Get it wet, squeeze it out so it doesn't drip at all, then draw it horizontally across the screen.
Then I immediately dry the screen with a lint-less micro-fiber cloth, and the screen looks great.
That method will, I guarantee you, get your screen 99% as clean as if you used those expensive chemicals. And if you think that 1% makes a difference or can actually be noticed then you are only kidding yourself.
Don't buy the chemicals. Some WILL damage your screen AFTER LONG TERM USE !!!!
20 or 25 cleanings and you start to get very slight milky patches here and there where they infuse into the screen coating (or chemically interact with it).
I know the screen cleaning chemicals are cleverly promoted. Advertising has introjected the idea that chemicals *MUST* be better. Advertising has also introjected the idea that expensive *MUST* be better. But it's all hype. Don't fall for it.
