I am thinking to use Plexus / Meg plastic cleaner with mf towels.

I simply use a dry (for regular cleaning) or slightly damp (for spots, anything out of the ordinary) microfiber towel on ours and it works fine. I suppose those products would work well too, although I like to go with the most gentle method possible.

I think Carl hit it on the head. Thats what I would do if I had navigation ;)

I`m not sure if those products would work on a LCD screen. I have a spray that comes with an MF to clean my laptop. It works great, removes all smudges.

I use plexus and mf, as you thought, on my non-touch screen Nav, and also my PC LCD panel. It seems very mild and a nice treatment.



BTW, plexus on your instrument panel rocks!

Lowrance GPS systems instruct you to use a 50% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol and 50% water mixture to clean their screens. I found this to work very well on all types of screens such as computers and TV screens.

I second that! Cheap and effective! The alcohol helps to dissolve the oils, so you don`t have to put pressure on something that is already quite sensitive.

3M makes wet wipes (individually packed) with isopropyl alcohol - very handy for that.

I use an alcohol based cleaner (or a 1:1 ISA/water mix) with a camera lens cleaning cloth (read ultra fine MF) or an Oakley sunglass bag.
