    isopropyl wipes - evaporation point is very low (well below room temp) with practically zero residue. I use it for cleaning all types of delicate and expensive electroic equipment (i.e. giving tape heads a clean on a 35 grand tape deck) - it's what all electronic engineers use. won't etch the screen unlike some other products which have been mentioned!

    aren't they the same things as they use to clean the skin when you get an injection?

    if so you could go & give blood & ask for a few while you're there

    (ok...slightly OTT just to clean your screen but there we are! you may know someone in the medical profession who could get you a few)
    if it ain't broke...fix it till it is
