Hi guys, how is everyone doing? I haven't posted here in awhile.

I ordered a DS rig almost a year ago, and I'm very happy w/ it. DS rocks!

Anyways, I got a 3007WFP from Dell. Its great but I'm having some issues w/ cleaning it.

I bought the appropriate liquid and everything. However, it leaves smudges still. Not the end of the world, but are these smudges cleanable?

I use this:

Is your monitor a non-glare screen, or is it a reflective glass surface?  My monitor is a non-glare screen and it does the same thing.  My wife has a reflective Dell monitor and we use the same Monster cleaner on both.  Hers cleans clean and streak free.

Make sure you're spraying  on the micro-fiber towel and not directly on the monitor itself.  Be sure the monitor screen is off and cool to the touch.  Wipe on with the damp side and be sure too wipe off with a dry side or a different micro-fiber towel.  You'll just need to go over it a couple of time until you get the residual off completely.

I'd would have to disagree with the monster kit's cleaning ability.

It streaked the hell out of my 40inch 1080p tv and made my monitors look like someone cleaned them with snot.

I use an alcohol solution that is mainly used to clean eyeglasses and such, I spray it on a microfiber cloth and there are no streaks on any of my monitors/tvs.

Some people claim the alcohol will cause problems, however I have yet to experience any issues and Ive been using it for 6months.

I use this stuff and its been great. Never any streaks, comes with a microfiber glove too. And its alcohol and ammonia free.

Hope this helps!
