If you ever do need to clean your flatscreen, go to a frame shop and ask to buy plexiglass cleaner. Some homestores have it next to their plexiglass sheets. Just don't spray it directly onto the screen.


Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

Cam, you used the word, "parsimonious" AND you have three pictures of Che all next to each other, like a shrine!

I becoming (more)concerned.

At least he doesn't have a candle in front of the shrine.

i think the best cleaner that one could use on a flat panel and that will not leave any marks is demineralized water.
Humidify the microfiber cloth, but don't make it wet, and gently go over the dirty areas and then use a dry microfiber cloth.

it may not be the only one to not leave streaks, but it will cost very little.

JB: That certainly sounds safe and, if it has worked for you, then it works as well. Plexi-spray does work, it's not an aerosol, and costs about $8.

Ken, we didn't see the whole room. I'm betting there are Latino prayer candles to ward off conspiracies.

There's the candle. Pretend it's lit smile .



Thought I'd show my calendar hanging from my track lift, too grin . I do have more, but they reside on the other side of the room. Cool thing is they're all straight from Cuba (minus the big picture). My parents bring back a new calendar and various keepsakes each year!

I just read that in a review, Jay. I have no idea, but Charles's postulation seems sound to me.

According to very ancient traditions, incense is the preferred choice to chase away bad spirits and ghosts and whatever bad influences that may befall on someone or something, including dirty flat panels. in effect, it's a universal cleaner.

it has been used by christians since the roman times; they use it to purify the altar (to chase away bad spirits) where they perform sacrificial rites.
if it has worked for millenia, it should be very effective.

I don't believe there is any such thing as an LED display in the consumer space. What they are is LED illuminated (as opposed to flourescent) LCDs. There are LED displays, but they're generally used for outdoor signage, sports stadiums, etc.
