Default LCD Screen Cleaning Solution

Did anyone pony up the $20 for the Monster LCD cleaning kit at Best Buy? Seems a little extreme when a damp lint free cloth seems to work fine.

I did, I like it, works really good. I bought it over a year ago and have a lot left. So, to me the $20 wasn't a big deal.

It is by far the best LCD cleaner that I have used and I have used at least 4 different brands. It is worth it since it leaves no streaks and no lint.

Bought some for my plasma about a year ago. Still have plenty left and works great on my TV. I would say it's a good purchase.

I've used Methyl Hydrate on LCD screens. Works better than Alchohol - no film residue... no smudging.

This may be slightly off topic but related. Does anyone have a problem with the edges of the TV statically attracting all kinds of dust to it?

Does anyone have a solution to this? I would assume there was some sort of repellent, yet I haven't found anything like this.

Also, back on topic. Do the people that use this spray cleaner - are you using the spray every time?. I've never had use anything more than a microfiber cloth on any of my TVs. But maybe I've just been surviving with a dirty teevee?1?!

everyday i wipe my tvs off with the microfiber cloth and once a week i use the spray for fingerprints and smears i also get a ton of dust because alot of my tvs are a black frame which i really like but huge on dust collecting

that monster stuff isn't worth it...as far as plasmas go all you would need is the micro fiber cloth and if you have finger prints just use a little water...chemicals over time are going to wear you tv screen out...I just personally think Monster products are totally overpriced and not any better then other brands...

As far as is the Monster Screen Clean or others such as Audioquests version, they do work and are designed for LCD, Plasma, and Projection TVs with the sheilds over the screen. They may be expensive , but trust me they do work better than water and do not eat at the anti reflective coating applied to most of our current Plasmas and Projection style TVs where reflections where issues. I hhave seen in person the effects of the wrong cloth or windex style products that contain ammonia or alcohol. I personally use it on all of my TVS which encompass the technologies named above and on my laptop and iPhone. Its worth the money if you search down a deal. I actually get my thru dealer accomadation.
