arrghhh... I cleaned my monitor as it had loads of greasy finger prints over it using a 'CRT Screen cleaner', but this seems to have damaged the anti-reflective coating. Is there anything I can do to repair it, or atleast reduce the appearance of it??? If it makes any difference the monitor is a iiyama VM pro 410.

Cheers

It's probably not removed the covering, more than likely it's smeared the grease all over the screen.

I got a glass cleaning cloth from Tesco that lifts the grease without using a cleaning fluid and therefore leaving marks.

Cheers, but unfortunately it really has removed the coating . I have to decide to whether it is best to

a) leave it and try to live with a big splodge in the middle
b) remove the coating from the entire monitor
c) buy a new monitor

What does anyone think?

Does anyone have a decent but cheap monitor for sale?
