whatis everyone using to clean their screens on the 997’s, From what I can see in the manual just a damp cloth. I have lots of finger prints that don’t come off with just a damp cloth and was thinking of using Dawn dish soap. Thanks.
I use a 50/50 mixture of water and white vinegar. I wipe/dab it with a micro fiber cloth.
Works excellent just about everywhere in the boat too !
Ammonia is what you really want to avoid, it’s hard on the antiglare coatings and tint.
You won’t believe this until you try it, but water…
1. Take a towel and soak it until it is dripping wet, don’t wring out.
2. Place towel on screen, press down flat to make sure you have screen contact.
3. Leave it sit for about 5 minutes.
4. Pull off wet towel and dry, using a little pressure with soft towel that won’t scratch.
Works miracles, learned this earlier this spring, actually lost a bet that it would work, but it was worth it, use it all the time.
Maybe this is a job for my Sham wow.
Usually hack a lugie on the screen, take off my shirt, and wipe it down good. If that smears, then plain ol’ water. Works like magic!
they make windex with vinager. thats what i use
I sent an e-mail to Humminbird this is what they said
Please note you may also the Windex Multi Task with Vinegar in the spray bottle. Do not use the Windex wipes on the unit. This would be the other recommendation other than the mild, soapy water. Please note the prolonged use of Dawn (liquid dish soap) would not be recommended but for non-frequent application that should be sufficient.
