I watched a guy at the hangar try to fix a G1000 screen with a regular glass cleaner last week.

He sprayed it right on the display and wiped it with a paper towel. I told him that stuff can wreck the anti-glare coating, but he said it was fine because it was 'just glass.' I keep my own bottle of the proper avionics-safe wipes in my toolbox for a reason. How many of you have seen this happen, and what do you say to stop it?

Ever try showing them the wipes you keep handy?

Notice how people act like basic hygiene is some kind of magic trick. Saw a guy at the gas station use a wipe on the pump handle and got a full-on stare. It's like we forgot a whole pandemic happened. Makes you wonder what other simple, smart habits we now treat as weird. Why is being prepared suddenly a public spectacle?
