I have the same problem I was told to use only the anti magnetic cloth that came with the screen no matter how I keep cleaning it the usual fingerprints marks are always there , not sure if it's down to the dual view screen as I never had this problem on my old SC |

I don't have the luxury of the dual view screen, but mine looks like it has been well used and for a car that is only just over 12 months old and only having been a "managers" car at the local dealer I'm slightly miffed to say the least

Optical wipes should do the job without any damage

Have only used a damp cloth so far, don't want to use anything else at the moment until the dealer has had a look and advised on it.

It' as if the finger prints are "burnished" onto the screen and won't come off.

now this may sound funny but when my mate use to deal in pc flat screens he would use Vaseline to tidy up the screens,when rubbed in it would hide small marks and blemishes, do not try to clean in one spot or you will take of the anti glare coating and it will be stuffed.

it's now booked in at the dealers for the 26th to be looked at and replaced under warranty. Not sure if its a complete screen that is needed or just the front glass/perspex thingy
