Cleaning a touch screen

I searched...didn't find squat....easy on the bashing now :p

My touchscreen deck is starting to become overcome with fingerprints. What type of solution and or other method should I use to take car of this? I have been told just a soft cloth, but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick. Any suggestions?

Take a look at Pledge for electronics...they make a special cleaner spray for electronics surfaces that may be compatable. READ the label carfully first....I have not done this as I dont have a touch screen....but it came to mind.

I've been using this for years on my laptop screen and keyboard with no problems. It works well.

~One mans opinion / observation~

I’ve been using Endust for Electronics (Kiwi Brands Inc) it’s a good anti-static and safe dusting spray that will safely remove fingerprints etc.




~Hope this helps~

Thanks for the input guys. I had been scoping out the automotive sections for idea, but hadn't even thought about checking out those options. I'll give it a shot and let you know.
Thanks

a mist of Z6 on a microfiber towel, wipe the screen, flip wipe again and it looks brand new.
