What is best to use when its time to clean the surface or screen of the monitor ?
A damp, soft lint-free cloth (do NOT use solvents!), or a dry, soft lint-free cloth with Isopropyl Alcohol. Clean with straight strokes, in one direction only. Under NO circumstances use any of the following, or substances based on them: Acetone Ammonia Ethyl Acid Ethyl Alcohol Methyl Chloride Do NOT use paper towels - they are abrasive. Only use "Computer Wipes" if they are specifically for LCD.
I heard a barely damp very soft cloth. Since I just got one yesterday, checking the d/l manual just now ... it's a bit vague. Samsung 191T <http://www.samsung.com/Support/Prod...ecode=370016&model=191T&filetype=UM&language=> or shorter http://makeashorterlink.com/?T254325E6 When cleaning the monitor case or the surface of the TFT-LCD, wipe with a slightly moistened, soft fabric. Do not spray detergent directly on the monitor. Use the recommended detergent with a smooth cloth. If the connector between the plug and the pin is dusty or dirty, clean it properly with a dry cloth. ... A dirty connector can cause an electric shock or fire. Do not set a glass of water, chemicals or any small metal objects on the monitor. ... This may cause damage, electric shock or a fire. ... If a foreign substance gets into the monitor, disconnect later on it also says , 3. When you clean the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recommended small amount of cleaner by using soft and dry cloth and polish it. Let LCD area not to be forced but to be scrubbed out softly. If excessive force is applied, you can have a stain on it. There is nothing about what type of recommended cleaner.... Me
No. That is a bad idea. All LCD monitor owners manuals state that you do not use Windex on it because it will damage the special anti-glare coating on the LCD screen. Use only the special LCD screen spray which is Screen Guardian from Kensington which is found at Staples or Office Depot. Zermut

Trust him it's true. I've always used to use Windex, Got it clean and quick, I'd heard you should never use it, but I had no problems with it. Then I started to notice irregular blotches of the CRT monitor, you gotta look close but there there. Seems the other monitors I had were too cheap to put on the anti-glare, so there never was a problem. This monitor has/had it until the Ammonia in the Windex started eating away at it. Mike's advice is the one to follow here, it's sound.
