What is the best way to clean a LCD or Plasma television?

Which product is best to use to clean an LCD television or plasma t.v.? Do you use the same type of product? Does one television cleaner work better than another?

I've bought a new LCD t.v. and want to make sure I don't scratch it. I have a [ and have a cleaner for it, but want to make sure it's ok to use.

Thanks!

First step is to check your TV'S manual and read the cleaning instructions for the best cleaning techniques for your specific tv.

Heres a great guide on how to clean a LCD or Plasma this is what I do personally to clean my 52inch LCD.

6 Easy Steps to Clean a LCD or Plasma TV

1. Turn TV off and let it cool off. Ensure that your TV has been off long enough that it doesn’t feel warm to the touch. Turn it off and let it cool down before proceeding with cleaning the screen.

2. Dust the screen. Wipe your screen with part of the soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust. If there are no visible smudges after dusting, stop here.

3. Make a mild mixture. There are a lot for cleaning solutions out there, but most HDTV manufacturers say that they best and cheapest cleaning solution for your LCD or plasma screen is to make your own equal-part mixture of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water. Using a measuring cup, make a solution with equal parts of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol.

4. Dip and wipe. Dip the clean end of the same cloth into the solution. Squeeze it to ring out the excess solution—you want the cloth damp, not wet. Then wipe the damp cloth over the LCD or plasma screen very gently.

5. Q-tip the Edges. Dip one end of the Q-tip in your mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water, then press it against the inside of the container holding the cleaning solution to squeeze excess moisture out of the cottony tip. Drag the damp end of the Q-tip along the outside edge of the LCD or plasma screen gently.

6. Dry with second clean, soft cloth. Use the second clean cloth to dry your LCD or plasma screen. Don’t leave any moisture on your screen, especially before turning the TV back on.

Be careful using alcohol as many screens have a non-glare coating that can be worn away by alcohol, personally I would use a very small amount of washing up liquid - but if you clean regularly you will find warm water will be sufficient and you only need the washing liquid if you have finger prints/grease

Dust will clean with warm water and a as sokoto states using a damp cloth not a wet cloth
