What do you use to clean smudges on your iMac display?

I tried lens cleaner (liquid) and glasses cleaning cloth but it left even more smudges.

For the external glass, I used water + disk soap. Worked all the time.
For the internal screen, I use only damped cloth and a lot of rubbing work. a little alcohol may help, but be careful.

I suggest gentleness and patience. Streaks after cleaning are usually the dried residue of the cleaner. (To clean I use a very low concentration of plain dish detergent.)
Alternate very soft damp (plain water only) and dry cloths, and stroke (not rub) the surface. Repeat several times. The smudges will gradually be absorbed. The screen coating naturally rejects contaminants, but it takes gradual encouragement, and is easily damaged by impatience.

Would a microfiber cleaning cloth like this one work better not cause scratches? https://www.amazon.com/3M-Microfibe...ild=1&keywords=3m+cloth&qid=1600829844&sr=8-5

Do you live near a Costco? For about $16, you can buy 36 cloths. I use them on my car, glasses and computer screen.
