Supplied in the cleaning kits furnished under the PHILLIPS BRAND. Contents
in the spray bottle is denatured [rubbing] alcohol, very similar to the
grocery and drugstore materials readily available. Kit comes with the nice
red spray bottle already filled, the corduroy type cloths, and the wooden or
plastic applicator over which the cloths are stretched. Instructions
included was to spray a liberal amount on the cloth and wipe the fresnal
screen in a circuiar motion from centre out to edge, to wipe the lenticular
from top to bottom in one continous swipe. Seemed to work great in getting
the kids fingerprints, etc off the screen. BTW one wipe over normally was
suffucient, had some customers attempt to rub out a scratch using the stuff,
actually began taking the paint between the lines on the lenticular off
leaving a nasty blemish. Strangle it was supplied as the recommended product
with many Phillips, Magnavox, Philso, and Sylvania RPTV units.

DNA? Do you mean denatured alcohol? Why would a drugstore carry this? It
certainly should not be used on a RPTV screen.

Actual material inthe RPTV cleaning kits is DNA, probably not much purer
than the regular drugstore or grocers supplies.

What is the best way to clean a television tube screen. One tv is a
Sony
XBR maybe close to 20 years old. Another is a 12 year old Sony XBR
squared. 3rd is a 13" stereo Toshiba tv with built in DVD. Best Buy
and
Circuit City say Monster Cable tv screen cleaning kit for 20 bucks is
only way to go. In the past we've used windex with ammonia sprayed on
paper towel. Toshiba says use Windex without ammonia. I can't get
through to Sony.

It's very confusing. What IS a good, safe way to clean a dusty tv
screen?

Windex on a paper towell works great, anybody trying to charge you 20
bucks
for a cleaning kit is ripping you off.
