It's a much more even cleaning.

Blowdrier's i hear work pretty well with lighter fluid also.

Otherwise go buy a cleaning kit at a home office store. Sucks, but at least it's labeled.

No Xbox, that's for LCD screens.

Not ipod screens.

Those would clearly just damage an ipod screen.

This thing is bad...I really can't explain. If you run your finger over it, it feels like someone took some sandpaper to it . You know, like it has a bunch of little colored dots (Just like when you get sweat or something on your phone screen)

The scratches or marks are probably permanently marked into the screen.

Not really, the scratches on the ipod are probably pretty deep.

You could most likely buy other cases online.

Look for the stuff "Scratch Remover" (something like that) that is used to remove scratches from CD's and DVD's. It works pretty well as long as the scratches aren't real deep.
