I wouldn't even have considered cracking a grin if your name wasn't FreeTheBeaver.

There's nothing to do in Iowa and Nebraska except watch tv. Those in the MN and the Dakotas go out and play.

in for 3, my 2 year old touches the tv everyday, and my macbook could use some.

hey...are you watching me?

The only place I could find this on Amazon was FREE with the purchase of a HDTV wall mount kit. Seems like it is a left over, not that there is anything wrong with that.

Can I use this when my internet gets too dirty?

Yes, but you are missing a golden opportunity to yell at your wife. "are you using windex on the plasma?????!! Use the cleaning gel!!"

I'm in the lady toy business. I'll take a box of them!!

In for 2. Great to have around for all the displays at home/work.

Something I've found works well when the spray bottle is empty: refill with 1:1 alcohol & distilled water.

Clearly, the person using Windex is talking about CRT monitors and TVs. They still, uh, make those, right?

WOO HOO! Now that's a quality post

I am assuming this is the off-brand of the Monster cleaning product. I have used the Monster brand and another off-brand of the same thing and have been extremely impressed with how well it cleans and does not leave streaks.

I will not clean my TV's with anything else. This is especially good for my DLP tv's (I have two) which seem to have extra sensitive screens. Also works great with Plasma and LCD screens (I have way too many screens).

This is definitely worth the money, although I would get three to make the shipping seem more reasonable.

Found on the Google:

Cleaning a flat screen (LCD, LED, or plasma) monitor
Here's How:

1-Turn off the monitor. If the screen is dark, it will be easier to see the areas that are dirty or oily.

2-Use a dry, soft cloth and very gently wipe the screen. A great choice would be the microfiber type of cloth used to clean eyeglasses.

See Tip below for kinds of cloths to avoid.

3-If the dry cloth did not completely remove the dirt or oil, do not press harder in an attempt to scrub it off.

4-Pushing directly on the screen can often cause pixels to burn out.

5-water or with an equal ratio of distilled water to white vinegar.

6-Many companies also sell small spray bottles of special cleaner for flat screen monitors but the vinegar mixture is usually just as effective.

See Tip below for products to avoid.

7-The plastic edge that surrounds the screen can be cleaned with any multipurpose cleaner but take care to avoid contact with the screen itself.

Tips:

Avoid using paper towels, toilet paper, tissue paper, or something like your shirt to wipe the screen. These non-ultrasoft materials can scratch the display.

Avoid cleaning products that contain ammonia, ethyl alcohol, acetone, toluene, ethyl acid, or methyl chloride. These chemicals can react with the materials that the flat screen is made of which could yellow the screen or cause other kinds of damage.

Never spray liquid directly on an LED, LCD, or plasma screen. It could run inside the monitor and cause damage.

bwhahahhaaa

and i love the Screen Name

Wasn't this the solution originally in those CD cleaning kits from the 1980s?

Can I take grandma to Applebees?

Protip: Use 1:1 white vinegar and distilled water. Works as good or better than anything you will buy.

That's exactly what I was talking about - My Visio, the Microsoft software for creating flowcharts. What, you thought I meant the TV in the previous Woot! with the slobbering dogs?

I use Brillo.

After some research, I retract my earlier statement about using Windex to clean flat screens.. apprently I've been lucky.

While I can't speak for Iowa, Nebraska is one constant dust storm. It's flippin' lovely.

Can it clean plasma TV's?

FreeTheBeaver wrote:These do a great job of cleaning my lady toys. I learned about it from my granddaughter who said that her dorm mates use it all the time.

How does that work (the cleaning, not the usage of the toys)? I assume you would need to rinse them off with water after cleaning...

I'm not sure what's in the this blue stuff, but it seems like you wouldn't want to test it out on sensitive areas...

Two words my friend: Corn Dust. If you don't know what it is, you clearly haven't been in Iowa around July.

I STRONGLY recommend against using vinegar in your cleaner mix. White vinegar has a pH of 5 or less. Again, I personally use 1:1 distilled water and isopropyl alcohol (not acidic).

for those living on the coasts and don't know which states are Iowa and Nebraska, they are the brighter ones in the middle

I am astounded that I just read a 7 step process for cleaning my screen, along with the bonus content of tips to avoid.

In Nebraska we are economical, so leave the windows open a lot for 'fresh' air that blows in over the fields (read as 'dirt') and everything in our homes are perpetually dusty and dirty. It's really stupid, but we do it anyway. I'm in for 3 bottles, I have lots of monitors to clean!
