I use an alcohol-based cleaningagent for my monitors (same as for my glasses, actually). Spray the agent onto a soft microfiber-cloth, wipe the screens, then use a dry, lint-free microfiber-cloth (also of the same type I use on my glasses) to remove any leftovers.

Microfiber cloth and Philips Flat Screen Cleaner in a back and forth pattern.
The solution dries for itself.

A damp(water) Microfiber cloth.

If you want to luxury: Use distilled water, check with your wife, she probably uses it for the steam iron.

If you're a smoker: Add some Isopropyl alcohol, however dont use that pure if your screen has some kind of coating applied or is made of plastic.


Do not use paper on high gloss screens, it's made of wood and in some cases it can scratch it.
Even worse if it contains recycling paper, this stuff contains all kinds of hard stuff like tiny metal pieces your ass wont notice but your screen sure will.

Take the cloth that comes with your glasses or binoculars or rifle scope and dampen it slighty. As was mentioned before, paper products can scratch the finish on your LCD/LED monitor.

Use only water to dampen the cloth. It should take off anything you managed to get on your monitor. (soda, boogers, cheeto dust, "protien stains" etc.)

Don't dampen the cloth too much, a drop of water running down your screen might leak into the internals and short something.

Small circular patterns work best, rub lightly until the stains disappear. Re-dampen if it starts to get dry.

If any dust remains on the screen left over from the cloth, brush it away with a makeup brush. They have soft bristles that won't scratch, and will remove the dust without leaving any behind.

Most cleaning products will either leave a residue or use an agent that might corrode the surface of your monitor.
