Most likely. Usually you can smell the alcoholWhat about those glasses wipes you can pick up from Lens Crafters? Do those contain alcohol?

Just out of curiosity, do you think it would be a good idea to try applying Rain-X with a microfiber towel to the screen of our phones, then buffing out? Reason I ask is rain-x is an oliophobic coating.

Yeah I know I got you. Thanks. I won't be applying Rain-X to my smartphone screen after all.Rain-X is actually hydrophobic (repels water), not oleophobic. From what I read the other day, it does help a little in that it makes the glass a bit easier to clean (and will certainly bead water) but doesn't handle oils the same way an oleophobic coating would.
There was also a consistent warning - don't use it on plastic screen protectors, and whatever you do, don't get it on anything rubber.
You'd have to look at the listed ingredients. Looks like this would be a good option: https://www.amazon.com/GreatShield-...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU6555788
You know this brings up a good point on maintenance.. Why don't users spend more on proper maintenance care material when they spend hundreds on their tech, specifically mobile devices?
I try to keep mine clean on the regular ...
Well, this is also very very true.I don't know why people spend money on cleaning materials when clean water and a microfiber cloth does the job just fine.
Hahaha hell yeah! Or, from a psychological standpoint, forcing yourself too get used to a smudgy, oiled up smartphone screen, no matter which make and model of a smartphone you have !Oleophobic = fear of an oily residue on phone screen.
Hahaha Eric rain-x ? Also can add a wiper bladeIs there any harm in putting Rain-X on the screen though? Even though it's a hydrophobic coating. I mean would it help with swiping around on the screen I wonder...
Haha fair enough. Forcing myself once again not to get too obsessive with fingerprints.Hahaha Eric rain-x ? Also can add a wiper blade
