See this document, there is a right way to do this and a way that will cause horrible consequences later.

hair spray will break down over time, but some kind of solvent could damage the screen permanently. distilled water can be purchased from a supermarket or drug store, it usually comes in a big jug and it's very inexpensive. As Idris points out never put liquid directly on the device, use a lint free cloth otherwise you can destroy the device very easily.
