I heard glass cleaners are too abrasive but water doesn't really cut it. Are there better alternatives?

Slightly damp cloth/tissue/paper towel... then just wipe it clean.
Works well on the case too.. keeping it simple usually works well.
iKlear is often recommended but there is a thread floating around about some of its negative aspects.

Also, a nice clean lint-free cloth should be used too. I actually like to use disposable Kimwipes that I swipe from the lab -- they're very gentle. I never use papertowels or kleenex if I can help it.

Some people say it streaks the screan when you wipe it. But, someone else said if you wipe it while the screen is room temperature it doesn't streak. I just picked up some iKlear last week at the Cambridgeside store and am going

I have one of the microfiber cloths but it doesn't get rid of smudges that are more than a couple days old. I need something liquid but won't damage it. Water sort of cuts it i just didn't know if there was something easy which would work.
