Question Cleaning LCD/NAV Screen

How are people cleaning the NAV screen? Looking for ideas as it gets dirty pretty quick and a regular cloth seems to just smear the prints... I know the manual says not to use any chemicals - so does that rule out the standard LCD wet wipes you can get to keep your LCD Tv's and Monitors clean... Thanks!

Microfibre cloth + water usually works. I use it on my LCD monitor too.

I've stopped eating so much chocolate, and my screen stays cleaner.

I have used eyeglass cleaner with the microfiber cloth that come with it.

Works great.

I use KimWipes. Available at Office Depot, Staples etc. I found the recommendation in an IBM Thinkpad document and they work great.

Also, I use the BACK of my fingernail to make selections on the touch screen. Reduces the smudges by 99%.

couple of folks have recommended customized-size protectors (6.1" X 3.6" ) from the following:

MicroFiber Auto Cloths from Costco.

These are an amazing deal and will clean almost anything without damage. I think they are about $10 for 24 16"x16" cloths.

I use them for everything from eyeglasses to computer screens. They work especially well on coated glass.
