Best way to clean a monitor (CRT)?

[Ness]

Uggh... my cousins just came over with their greasy fingers and pointed (read: jammed their fingers into) all the "pretty pictures".

So aside from a little bit of tolerable lint, I have big smudges on my monitor. I know that windex destrorys some protective something or other on the monitor, so what should I clean it with?

Soap and water.

I use glass plus and a tee shirt rag.

I use monitor wipes for my wife's CRT, my LCD and our laptop.

Generally, windex without ammonia works well, since it's the ammonia that kills your anti-glare coating.

I'm a fan of Endust for Electronics. I can even use the stuff on my LCD monitor. When I clean such pieces, I also use micro-fiber towels to do the job so scratches don't get created when cleaning the monitor.
