Cleaning the MacBook Screen

ok, so ive had my macbook for a few months now, and have yet to clean the screen. just by looking at it, i can tell that it really needs a good cleaning. with that being said, i was wonderig if there were any inexpensive ways to cleaning the screen. the cheaper the product, the better. also, with whatever product i do use, is there a certain way i should use it that wont leave streak marks on the screen? anything would b helpful, and thanks in advance.

Any microfibre cloth dampened with water. You don't need to buy any chemicals or window cleaner. If anything, you *might* purchase "Invisible Glass" from any automotive store. Spray on the cloth. Rub in just ONE direction, not in a circular direction.

There are other cleaners, such as iKlean, but for the most part, just a microfibre cloth and water is all you need.

I agree with Larry. All you need is a microfibre cloth dampened with water. I used iKlean and it actually made it worse (smudges). Water works the best. Local electronic/computer stores should sell microfibre cloths for around $5-$10.

I use and recommend nothing more than a microfiber cloth as well. I got mine from Best Buy, but you can get them almost anywhere.

Also, never EVER apply any liquid directly to the screen. If you have an especially stubborn thing on the screen, ever so slightly dampen a small area of the microfiber cloth.
