What are you using to clean your IPS computer screen?

Microfiber cloth + ?

I know some people might dampen the cloth with a little water. I read on about.com of using an equal solution of distilled water and white vinegar but I am not going to try that.

I am looking for a spray solution that is designed for cleaning computer screens. There are many from what I have seen and I am sure some are better than others.

I just want to spray my cloth to get some finger prints off the screen.

So how do you clean your screen?

Thanks.

Distilled water (no minerals) spritzed on a very soft white cotton cloth, like a piece of a well worn tee shirt. Monitor must be off and cool. Gently swipe, don't rub.

Never wipe a dry cloth of any kind across an LCD monitor.
