How to clean the screen of your plasma HDTV?

[JBElliott]

I apologize in advance if this is a repost. I did do a Google search and a search of this forum, but didn't turn up much specific information.

I recently purchased a Panasonic TH-42PX75U. I have two young girls (both under five years old) who like to touch the screen (it's an ongoing battle with them ). So what's the best way to clean the screen?

I've tried the water with microfiber cloth (the eye glass stuff) as suggested in the manual but that leaves streaks and doesn't get the finger prints completely off the screen.

It's only a problem in that when the TV is off I can see slight streaks and remnants of the finger prints in the reflections, when the TV is on they are invisible. But still, I'm anal enough to want them gone from the reflection as well. Additionally, I'll be buying a Panasonic TH-58PZXXX some time in the future and want to know how the clean it before I get it.

I've seen plasma/LCD cleaning kits. Are those effective?

Any specific suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

I just use a dry microfiber cloth to clean my plasma. It works very well and leaves a streak free, dust free monitor. I have OCD as well and have to keep my appartment in pristine condition.

For your new set I would suggest wall mounting it, or is thats not an option most of the newer H/T cabinets have a spine on them that your HDTV will mount to, and should be well above arms reach of a young child.
