How to clear up alcohol if it appears as foreign material showing bright white spots in the LCD screen?

I spilled alcohol on my iPhone screen, it is showing noe bright whit spots after actually the disappearance of the pattern produced by the alcohol.

It seems to be after all what I read rthat it may be acts as a foreign body between the pixels.

The question is:

If there is a way to clear up these white spots from the LCD screen other than replacement?? Any successful history??

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

Accidental damage to yuor iPhone is not covered by the Applecare warranty. You should dry out your iPhone completely. If that deos not work, Apple can provide you with a replacement iPhone, and you will be charged for it.

If you have Apple Care+ Apple will replace your phone for $49. For such an expensive device paying an additional $100 for some measure of insurance seemed to be a decent option. Plus when the phone gets to be 23 months old and you should happen to damage the phone, you will get a new phone, with new battery, for less than it costs to replace a battery.
