I think Maplin used to sell it. Otherwise somebody like RS Components
do it. That's where I used to get mine. I've never seen anything
saying you shouldn't use it on a screen but that's not to say that
there isn't somewhere. If in doubt I suppose a damp (as in damp not
wringing wet of course) optical cloth would be ok. It may not get all
the fingerprints off though.
I remember using that foamy stuff on the uni monitors. It never
seemed to dry :-))) good cleaner though.
