I've been using Endust for Electroincs to clean my screens for the last couple years. It's oil free, wax free and ammonia free. Supposedly, (as it states) it is made specifically for computer and TV screens...and other sensitive electronics. So far, I've encountered no problems and it leaves a streak-free picture.Chris B -
Hmmmm, I would have never thought that Endust for Electronics would work in such an application. I'll have to check this out. Thanks for the tip goldear. :T"I have come here, to chew bubblegum and kickass. And I'm all out of bubblegum!!!"Comment

No problem, John. Most manufacturers just suggest using a soft cloth that may be "slightly" dampened with mild soap for stubborn stains. If it's just dust, I'll usually use this method...or one of those disposable anti-static brushes work great (Swiffer, I think). But for those little oily, fingerprints that like to try and catch Nemo...the Endust comes in handy. I believe Office Depot also has some similar products as well specifically for monitors.Chris BComment

Chris, are you using it on a protective screen on an RPTV? Those generally aren't glass - IIRC, more often than not they are a polycarbonate/plastic of some type. So, I'd be worried about the Endust reacting with - scarring, dulling, etc - the plastic.....

David,
I was actually concerned about the ingredients in this product (and the dulling that could occur) since they weren't listed...so I did call their consumer number before using it. According to the rep I spoke with, it is suppose to be safe for both glass and plastic-composite screens, as it even lists computers and non-glare laptop screens on the label...which many are now of the LCD quality. In fact, a quick Google shows that many normally, paranoid LCD users (when it comes to cleaning) have gone to Endust for their screens. That being said, I don't like to use any liquid on my screen and only use it on rare occasions. If anyone has heard anything differently, please let me know.Chris BComment

I have a Pioneer Elite 95 Pro RPTV and there are some bugs in between the layers of my screen.
It does not appear easy to take apart. Is there a trick to it?02 January 2007, 17:52 Tuesday -
Here is my story:
I went to work on a normal day, a co-worker who had come from outside on the loading dock, tells me someone is throwing out 3 projector screens. Tell me it isn't so, I run down (not literally mind you), to the loading dock, and there were two remaining. I open the... -
Hey all,
I'm curious as to how you all clean your vinyl records?. What do you use? Do you use a solvent at all? How do you remove dust off your records etc?
I'm especially interested in DYI home made solutions and techniques to keeping your vinyl records clean and dust... -
Here is a three step process to safely cleaning the aluminum of Delta Classe gear. Progress to the next step if the prior doesn't work.
1.) Windex and microfiber cloth
2.) Purchase something called the "Tidy Pen"

Can you folks recommend a way to clean the casing without leaving streak marks, etc? I like the soft-touch feel of the surface material, but find it hard to clean nicely. I've tried a touch of water and an eyeglass cleaning cloth. Thanks.29 January 2003, 18:28 Wednesday
