Question how to clean the screen ?

This may be wrong forum, but I look thru the detail forum and can't find how to clean the screen for the CD-player.
All my friends that got into the car thought it was a touch screen so they poke their finger to the screen now its has finger marks.
I am not sure how to clean the screen.....

A little bit of Windex sprayed onto a paper towel. Enough to have the towel damp, so it doesnt scratch but not so much that by pressing on the screen you will cause liquid to squish out & run down the screen & into the bottom of the screen.

Never spray directly onto the screen.

Same thing for the windshield rear view mirror.

Right on Barry! Or you might want to pick up some lens wipes from the drugstore. They are premoistened with cleaner and will not scratch.

Buy a can of Plexus plastic cleaner at performanceproducts.com you can use it on the entire interior as well as the ac/controls and the screens.

You will thank me, i swear by it..leaves no film, no streaks, just clean.

I use a dry microfiber cloth on the screen.

Do not use paper towels. Use either a soft flannel cloth, or , more preferably a microfiber cloth. Moisten the cloth, not the screen, with some water first. If you use microfiber you don't need cleaning solutions.
