I'm pretty sure you can just use windex or some other glass cleaner. Either that, or you can use the small cloth the iMac came with, I found its good for getting out fingerprints and such.

Pretty sure. Might want to wait for a few others to chime in and give their opinions. I did use glass cleaner once on my first iMac, it worked fine.
