"For most modern TVs, a microfiber cloth slightly dampened with water is sufficient for safely cleaning the screen. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can damage the screen. If there are stubborn smudges or fingerprints, you can use a small amount of diluted dish soap on the cloth. However, always check the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific cleaning instructions, as some TVs may have special coatings or materials that require specific care. If in doubt, it’s best to err on the side of caution and use a gentle cleaning method. You an also buy windex tv wipes on Amazon."

"Microfiber cloth for LCD displays, never press the display! And for the old picture tube, it's just like cleaning any other glass. It is important that the device is always switched off."

"there is a lot of suitable products - e.g. a set for cleaning LED, LCD and TFT screens by Esperanza. It consists of a gel suitable for this type of matrix and a soft microfiber cloth. It is an environmentally friendly material with high abrasion resistance, very good absorbency and excellent cleaning efficiency, even when dry. The tiny fibers thoroughly collect dust and liquids.

Remember that specialized screen cleaning agents should be used when there is a need for general surface refreshment: e.g. when splashed with a sticky or difficult to remove substance. When you just want to wipe off the dust, all you need is a microfiber cloth"
