    Whats everyone using for keeping screens clean?

    Any good coating or fancy cleaning rags to use on these screens to help with fingerprints and waterspots?

    Microfiber and Peregrine 250 electronic screen cleaner. Although in a pinch I've used Windex with Vinegar (No ammonia!) which seems to do just as good.

    I have been using the Bass boat saver screen cleaner for a few years. Nice little bottle to keep in the boat and works great.

    Works quick and easy. Microfiber towel and start each day with a clean screen.

    I use this formula also. I put some on a clean microfiber to clean the screen then used a dry part to make it look new. The sooner you clean your screen after fishing the easier it is to make it look new.

    Most times I just use clean water on a microfiber cloth. Unless things are really gooped up...then 50/50 Isopropyl/H2O

    My breath and a microfiber cloth. Wipe off the screen after every trip, and that will be all you ever need.

    Dry microfiber towel, cover the screen with it. Get a cheap spray bottle at the dollar store and mix up 50/50 vinegar and water. Spray the rag wet and let it soak for a couple minutes. Take it off and wipe the screen with a second dry microfiber towel. Comes out like new, super easy, super cheap.

    I have some Bass Boat Saver screen cleaner I use and sell with my local business. It will
    last a very long time. Scratch free formulas so can wipe
    down with most types of rags tissues towels etc.....paper towels fine too. I’ve been using the same bottle for over 2 years now. $15 shipped to anywhere in USA
