I like to masturbate while watching porn with my laptop (portable masturbation), so cleaning up the LCD screen is something I do in routine basis. Damp cloth always does the job nicely, no matter how dried the semen has.

Water, some isopropyl alcohol and a paper towel. I don't have a glossy screen tho. Those things must be so easy to scratch....

I rarely clean the LCDs tho... once every few months or so I'd say.

I use water with a very very small amount of amonia in it (the amonia helps break up the surface tenshion of the water to reduce streaks) spray that onto a clean soft cloth with a spritzer and clean

Glass Plus & Paper Towel - Seems to work with no obvious side effects. I feel better about it then Windex since it doesn't contain ammonia.

I use a microfibre windowcleaning cloth and breath on spots.
I also have special LCD cleaning moist towelettes but I find the microfibre work best generally.
My spot mostly come from spatters of juice/water or ice-tea.
I once tried some damp cottonballs but that was a bad idea, it sort of stuck to the spots making a mess.

This stuff works, but you must use as directed because if you spray too much solution, it will leave streaks.

Cotton undies...wife's; GF's whatever. Optimal if aged 6 months or better...laundered preferably, but certainly optional.

The very first day I had this laptop my youngest son son licked his thumb and used it to wipe off a piece of dust...the mark is still there! GREASY HANDED LITTLE *(%@&!

That was 5 1/2 years ago and it is still the only mark on the screen...SInce then I have only used a very soft cotton cloth that is slightly damp.

I prefer Monster Screen Cleaner. It's used for LCD and Plasma TVs, runs about $30 for a bottle and a nice micro-fiber cloth. Does wonders and no streaks.

Water with any cloth and towel works fine.

I like adding alcohol to the water in order to help speed up evaporation. Smearing always seems to be a problem with water.

It's a shame they don't just put glass on LCD panels -- I'd think that would make it a lot easier to clean.

Lint free cloth, wet half of it lightly with just water. Wipe. Immediately use the dry side and dry off any excess moisture. You will have a streak/smudge free LCD.

I still see people point pens at LCD's at work. tsk tsk.

I've been using Data Flash Screen Wipes for a couple of years now, they work really well and are pretty cheap. I highly recommend them. I usually finish off or brush away dust with an old pure cotton t-shirt.

I also would like to discourage anyone from using the Servisol "Computer Care" screen wipes sold on Amazon. They made a horrible streaky mess of the screen that I tried them out on, a mess that remained until I got some more Data Flash wipes.

Purchased a LCD cleaning cloth made by 3M a long time ago. Just dampen it with a little bit of water on on corner and wipe down the screen, and then use the dry side to clean up.

Don't use chemicals of any kind. May LCDs now come with anti-reflective coating. Chemicals may damage that. Stick to water on a cloth.

I typically use eyeglass cleaner, preferably the ones that come in the packet with a small towelette. I work for a manufacturing firm so these are readily handy for cleaning safety glasses.

Whatever you do, don't use paper towels.

Other methods may work with less effort, but I think the safest by far is the simple solution - a damp cotton cloth (I made one out of an old shirt I was going to toss, make sure its soft and very absorbent) and water. Dampen a spot of the cloth, and keep the rest of it dry. Wet the spot you want to clean a bit, then dry with a dry section - the really oily ones are no different from the usual smudges - just repeat until there is no oily film left (which should only take two or three tries).

Methods that use alcohol or any sort of solvent may work, but I think the slight risk is unnecessary when they don't work significantly better than water.
