I know no Windex should be used, but what do I use to not get streaking then?

I have no LCD TV, but I use a microfiber cloth very lightly dampened with an eyeglass cleaner on my LCD monitor.

I just dampen mine with water and then immediately dry with another cloth. If there are no smears, I just use a dry cloth to remove dust.

Holy shit, do NOT use that on a display with an anti-reflective coating. Someone used it on their Pioneer 6020 and screwed it up.

Works well on a SXRD rear projection.

That's why I use the spectacle-cleaning solution; it's designed not to degrade anti-glare coatings.

such a timely thread. I was just thinking of posting a similar thread. Hired a cleaning lady for the first time and she cleaned my LCD monitors with windex. Now there are streak marks galore. Luckily she didnt touch my TV
