I did have to buy a general electric lcd cleaner that came with a liquid solution and just applied the spray onto a special fiber that the cleaner had, and just wiped my lcd 24" screen with circular motions all around the monitor. It looks just as if it were new, not even when sunlight hit the monitor did I ever see a stain or anything like it. I would also personally recommend to all the people here to buy a anti-static vinyl cover for your monitor, whenever it's not in use. Nicely put Steve.

"some say don’t........some say do" "I really don’t understand why one thing says do this and the other says something different, which is RIGHT?" This is often the case with the internet and open forums like this. You have to remember that by posting or reading a forum like this that you are posting and reading to/from all who are doing the same thing. Not everyone who posts an answer will be an expert. So the one that is "RIGHT" is the one you think is "RIGHT" and that the problem you have to have know the answer to know witch one is "RIGHT" otherwise it's tack your pic and hope the one you pic is OK. But I would always go with some form of logic: and ask: What is in most commercial cleaning LCD products? answer "NOT vinegar" so most problem the posts saying "NOT vinegar" are right. That said if the screen is glass then vinegar is good. As for the "microfiber cloths" I don't think any post says not to use them. Basically you don't want dust,hears or scratches. Hop this helps Jennifer

First sorry for the spelling I am dyslexic….

“some say don’t……..some say do” “I really don’t understand why one thing says do this and the other says something different, which is RIGHT?”

I've been using wipes sold at Walmart that are specifically made to clean LCD screens and they've always worked great!!! God god, just spend a couple bucks for these. A lot of stores sell LCD wipes. I don't understand why anyone would claim they damage your screen as they do not!! However-for badly spotted screens (made by soft drinks, etc), one might want to use something a bit more major. But for general cleaning use the wipes. (Btw, small amounts of soft drink spots can be gotten rid of using the wipes.) Why is there all this confusion????

Well I use the microfiber on my TV for around 2 years now and my TV is FINE! So what's the deal?

I finally took it apart (literally). The whole screen, I separated the two plastics & just wiped and used a blow-dryer to dry the damp. It worked, the TV looks like nothing ever happened.
