How to clean anti-glare screens?

[puma1552]

Curious as to what the safest method for cleaning the anti-glare screens is on the unibodies. On my glossy a simple damp lint-free cloth works perfectly, but I have a feeling that over time that method of cleaning may actually rub/ruin the antiglare surface, so I'm a bit worried.

How best to clean your antiglare?

Nah, damp cloth works fine. Just be careful with the pressure.

Be light.

The cleaning cloth you got with your Mac is good for getting rid of smears.

No, seriously, just a soft, damp cloth. On my old anti-glare MBP I cleaned the screen with a Microfiber cloth and a little water. If there were fingerprints on the screen or something else that's greasy and hard to clean, I substituted iKlear for water.

I say almost the exact same thing you could, Bill Gates.

But in all seriousness, the above worked fine and dandy.

I'm a big fan of iKlear. They also come with cloths.

THIS is the very best way to clean a matte screen. It probably the best cleaner you can find.
