Good for you, everyone has "their" tried and true. I don't give a crap if you do photography, I have done design and photography for 10+ years in my free time and unless you are using color accurate monitors you will always have pixel discoloration to some degree.
I came at you with the same energy that you came at me with. You are however missing the point.
Rubbing alcohol is diluted alcohol and manufactures, especially if you are using glossy screens, recommend that you don't use alcohol or rubbing alcohol.
I can say from experience not all monitors react the same but it shouldn't be in a recommend guide and if it is going to be in a guide helping people then it should have a note stating that you shouldn't always use alcohol and the risk that come with it. Working in the tech industry for over 15+ years we haven't recommend using alcohol on monitors since CRT monitors. The risk isn't worth the reward and the user should always start with just plain water in a mist bottle and a microfiber.
