I just purchased a new FF and DON'T want to screw it up. I thought I heard somewhere not to use glass cleaner or anything like that on it - I got out yesterday and played with it a bit, marking duck hunting blinds, etc and really, really liked it!!! But, I hit a heck of a wake and got splashed pretty good and have water spots on the screen. I know you're supposed to use the soft camera lens cloths or sun glass cloth, but if that won't bring the spots off, what, soap and water??

Thanks!

I clean my Fish Finder Screen with a soft tissue (Kleenex) and a few drops of plain water.
Do it as soon as possible before the water spots start to etch the glass.

Re: How to clean the FF screen?

The different screen types require different cleaning methods. If your screen is behind a protective layer of glass use can use window cleaner. I use the “hand cleaners” you get at restaurants on mine. If you do not have protective glass, I would check your operators’ manual for cleaning methods. Using the wrong thing damahege will damage anti-glare coating on some screens

I use the lens wipes from Zeiss that can be bought at Wal-Mart for five bucks a hundred
