How best to clean screen before installing protector?

[mulhiny]

I just use the lint free cloth that came with my ipod Touch. Even if you get dust on the protector itself, all is not lost. I have reused stock screen protectors simple by running them under water and cleaning them off. Then leaving them sticky side up to dry. I had 4 touch pro's (3 replacements) and used the same original screen protector on all of them.

I know its not recommended, but I used hand sanitizer.

I steamed up the bathroom to trap all the dust particles, got a bowl, filled it with soap and water, washed my hands, dipped my hands in the bowl and applied the protector. The soap prevents your fingers from leaving marks on either the screen or protector.

YOU WILL HAVE VERY FAINT STREAKS UNDER THE SCREEN FOR A FEW DAYS! I thought I screwed up and nothing I did made them go away. But TRUST ME, they go away after 48-72 hours!
