How do I clean my Belkin screen protector on my iPhone 16e safely?

Hi; I recently purchased a Belkin UltraGlass 2 screen protector for my iPhone 16e. Applying it was easy but now it needs cleaning due to normal use, i.e. dust and skin oils. Belkin's website advertises a "ScreenForce" wipe but it is not available directly from Belkin. Has anyone found a reputable source for this product? Thinking using a microfiber cloth dampened with distilled water - as recommended for iMac screens - but not sure if it can also be used on a screen protector. Thanks!

Most screen protectors are glass. It should be fine. I use a product called iKlear. That’s what we used in Apple Stores when I was a store manager. Not sure of prices now but an 8oz bottle was around $25 I think.

The Belkin SP I bought is a film rather than a separate piece of glass: had to peel off its backing, apply it gently and remove air bubbles by pushing them out to the sides. It can, if necessary, be partially peeled off to clean the edges. Naturally, peel it off too many times and it will not stick. I did, in fact, use the iKlear microfiber cloth and cleaner on my previous iPhone which did have a glass protector. Not so this new one.
