I don't find anything here that would help to my situation, and wiping the screen don't seems to remove the oil that has gotten trough my hands. I need a method without baby wipes which I don't posses, nor socks (or any cotton cloth), I don't possess glasses cleaning cloths (I had one years ago), nor any other recommendation is readly available to clean off the screen safely.

The mentioned suggestions don't solve my problem. The other question is asking about dust, mine is oil (or grease) which most of dust methods are helpless about.

    Since having kids I think I will always buy baby wipes as they are so useful. Cleaning glasses, screens etc just have to be careful not to let the dog eat them though! – Nick J Adams Jan 05 '15 at 15:25
  • @shog as I mentioned in chat, I read that question but neither the objetive of the question nor the answers are particualry helpful here and the solutions are actually very obvious which I already tried/think about and discarded. – Braiam Jan 05 '15 at 22:37
  • @NickJAdams I don't have kids, and baby wipes are too costly (imported is the only way) to having a stash to clean the screen constantly. – Braiam Jan 05 '15 at 22:38
  • Perhaps the best prevention is INTERVENTION... stop TOUCHING your screen with your dirty hands hands. If it isn't a touch device, you should NEVER touch the screen. If it IS a touch device, clean your fingertips (not sure why whole hands are touching the screen) before use. Simply wiping them on your pants or shirt should do the trick. – Phlume Jan 06 '15 at 19:40
  • Using a microfiber cloth will take care of hand oil as well as dust, so the question marked as duplicate does answer your question – holroy Mar 18 '15 at 21:38
  • @holroy no, it doesn't. The other answers just doesn't work for my situation, since I just don't possess microfiber which was explained in the post. More on the topic What to do when the question you want to ask is a duplicate? – Braiam Mar 18 '15 at 22:18
  • @Phlume if everybody that touch the screen did, that would work. – Braiam Mar 18 '15 at 22:19
  • Hmmm, this still kind of becomes a duplicate question as most people do have either microfiber clothes or some cotton cloth or piece of cotton fabric, which all can be used to clean the screen. I would either try to get/but microfiber cloths, or use some cotton fabric. – holroy Mar 18 '15 at 22:28
  • @holroy "most people" doesn't mean that you can brush off my own circumstances. I have cotton cloths but that doesn't remove the greases, it only disseminates it, so it isn't a solution to my problem, it doesn't remove the grease. Microfiber, on the other hand, is so rare to find here, that you can call it a luxury item. – Braiam Mar 18 '15 at 22:36
  • I'm sorry if you are offended by my remarks, but remember that this is a community with questions and answers for the community albeit asked by individuals. Have you tried applying a small amount of dish washer to your cloth, this could pick up/remove the oil. Do be careful not to apply to much, as you must probably know that screens and fluids are not the best combination... – holroy Mar 18 '15 at 22:44
  • I added another answer to the other thread, as this is closed. If interested, please do comment on that answer, as to if it is helpful or not. I've used those trick myself on similar devices – holroy Mar 19 '15 at 11:17
