Looking for something good for wiping screens. Don't care if it is a spray or a microfiber cloth or something else, just need something that is really good.
Tried first the ones from reject shop & co and then the ones from HN, DS and so on but so far nothing really that exciting.
Does anyone know something that really cleans the display without leaving lines
TIA
Have you used them? They wipe properly and there is no dry wiping needed after them?
I just use microfibre cloths that come with my glasses. works a treat.
Linus also recommends coffee filters.
Glasses cloths $6 delivered, 100: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/321649368856
Cheaper if you only want 10 or so. They work fine while dry for most things you want to wipe, if you want to avoid the alcohol wipes for fear of damaging any coating.

tissues and water
Tissues are too scratchy. Try chux if you must use something you've already got around the house.
And water by itself won't remove much of the oil left by human contact. Add a little mild soap.

I use the spray commonly used to clean reading glasses and the accompanying cloth, pretty sure it can be bought cheaply at Costco, Big W (eye centre) etc.
I use baby wipes. If it's good enough for toddler bums it will be good enough for screens.
And leave a layer of moisturising baby oil on the screen….brilliant…
But there's so much more sh*t on a computer screen!
Isopropyl alcohol. The fluid provided to clean audio cassette heads was made of isopropyl alcohol and water. BigW used to sell a small spray bottle of it - haven't bought it for quite a while though. Or mix half white vinegar and half metho. Vinegar cleans, metho evaporates. This is the problem with using anything watery like vinegar (or water) - you have to wipe around more to dry the droplets.
Soft cotton. I use old flannel shirts torn into rags for such things. Just have to give a light blow to get rid of any fluff afterwards. No rags? Easy - use the shirt.
You can get isopropanol from Bunnings, Jaycar, etc.. But apparently there are some concerns about it removing anti-glare coatings (mostly from Apple recommendations, I believe). YMMV.
I prefer mild soap on a soft damp cloth, then wiped clean with a soft dry cloth. Microfibre cloths are cheap and plentiful.
