I clean mine by spraying a very light mist of glass cleaner onto a paper towel. You just want it slightly damp and NOT wet. Then just wipe the screen with it. I wouldn't ever spray anything directly on the PDA because it just might get into where it's not supposed to and short something out. By spraying a small amount of cleaner onto a rag, you greatly reduce the possibility of this happening.

you use paper towel (wood origin)?

I always thought cotton was better.

Yup, Bounty to be exact. Cotton probably would be better, but the same screen protector hasn't been scratched from using this cleaning method in over a year and a half. YMMV

Yeah, a paper towel works best for me too.

I use a mix or isopropyl alcohol diluted with distilled water, I cleaned it with a jewlers cloth, before putting on the screen protector
