I read MTM Mom's comment about using a soft cloth with a little bit of water & then softly using a pencil eraser to clean permanent marker off my 19 inch flat screen computer monitor. I'm SOOO excited!! It worked, no scratches & no more marker (which was courtesy of my 5 year old sneaking into my den).

The anti-glare film on my sony plasma got spotty and I wanted to remove the rest of it. I tried a variety of products before trying "aluminum polish". It did a great job, the film came off quickly, and the glass was not scratched or mared in the process. It looks great again.
