Default [Q] Screen Cleaning?

Well I have been using a specsaver glass cloth that's damp or sometimes I use some specsavers glass cleaner. This cleans the screen really well but the screen then does feel as smooth and slippery, its like when you first use the tablet. Is this normal or am I using the wrong technique?

What I've found to be a proven solution is 50% water and 50% Isopropyl (rubbing alcohol), into a spray bottle. Spray enough to cover the entire surface, without causing drips, then wipe down with a MICROFIBER CLOTH. Do not use any other cloth. Walmart has these clothes in the automotive section for $5 for 8. Works really well.

Personally, I've found 60% water, 40% isopropyl to be slightly better.

God forbid anyone uses Windex

I found a good little product by Brasso called Gadget Care, when you clean with it a few times the screen cleans much better with just a cloth.

It also stops anti static buildup so is good on monitors and tv's to prevent dust build up.

The best price i found is at hmv uk
