iKlear tends to smear the screens and takes days to come off. That's been my experience.

I've used iKlear on my matt macbookpro, my mum's gloss pc laptop and our lcd tv all without a problem.

A small squirt of the liquid onto the thick blue microfible cloth, and then follow the instructions! :)

I am not a big fan of a lot of Monster products but their ScreenClean has worked great on my computers and TV's for years does not streak or leave a residue no alcohol or ammonia and it cost the same as everyone else around 19.00 for 200 ml.

A spray bottle of Wal-Mart lens cleaner works well and is not expensive. Besides using it on your iMac screen, you can clean your eye glasses with it as it also provides an anti-static coating. Good stuff.

You can probably find lens cleaner fluid in any camera shop or one which sells eyeglasses. Of course it may cost a bit more than what Wal-Mart charges. :)
