[QUOTE=zizo79]What Do You Use To Clean Your Plasma Screen ?[/QUOTE]I use the Search Feature :D

Which reveals most people use a microfiber towel and distilled water or LCD screen cleaner. My screen seems to repel dirt and dust and stuff - i've only had to clean it twice in 19 months and even then it really didn't need it!

For a good cleaning, nothing beats uncorking the old elbow grease and tearing into the screen with a few SOS pads. For those really tough stains, dip the pad into straight bleach. Make sure you rinse the entire set in scalding hot water. In fact, take it into the shower with you and do it all there - less mess to clean up afterwards.

Just make sure you unplug it. Remember, Elmer the Safety Elephant sez,,"Safety First"!

JAVEX + SOS pads + scalding water = one clean screen!;) !;)

Now that I've had my fun, the 1st responder has good advice. Monster Cable makes a spray cleaner that comes with it's own microfibre (MF) towel. Only use the MF towels. NEVER use paper towels, Even cotton terry towels are too prone to leaving scratches. Also, the 1st respodent was right about the state of the screen and the need of cleaning it.

My own 42" plasma seems to repel dirt, as well. The exact opposite of the CRTs which seem to reach out and grab on to anything that's in the air, hermetically sealing it to the screen's surface. Dirt, dust, smoke, fart residue - you name it, it'll be on that CRT screen.

Take care.

LOL. And don't forget to give it good wax after you're done cleaning, we want that surface to be as reflective as possible! (Just kidding!)

But seriously, I always use just a dry microfiber towel, that's it.

Monster is overpriced. Try this:

Includes 8 wipes and 1 microfiber cloth

Nothing but the best for my plasma. Use this:

I was going to recommend this, but it seemed kinda cheap for use on such an expensive piece of equipment.

[Frost147]

yep - can't beat the bald guy with the earing, eh?

On a slightly more serious note - and so far, I've only done this once in the 4 months that I've owned the set - I vacuum the back vents with a brush attachment - CAREFULLY! There is also a prodcut out there that sends a blast of air into the vents for clearing up dust bunnies - but I would hesitate to"blast" anything on to such delicate electronics,,,,,,

[QUOTE=Mike Littrell]Monster is overpriced.[/QUOTE]Perhaps, but this product is “safe” & “effective” and (1) 200 mL bottle will probably last for about 10 years.
