Best cleaner for LED Monitor

I've read to use only distilled water; equal parts distilled water and vinegar; and, equal parts distilled water and alcohol.

Are any of those right and if so, which?

I sprang for a cleaning kit with lifetime free refills when I bought my sunglasses; I spritz the cleaning cloth with the solution and wipe it down. If there's really stubborn grime I'll spray just a bit right onto the screen, but ya gotta be careful it doesn't run down and leak into the interior.

Of course, for 6 or 7 years prior I just used a paper towel dampened with Windex and never had an issue. Most monitors don't have fragile coatings like lenses so there's really nothing to worry about.
