Hi Shelley,
I don't have scanner glass but those cloths really sound neat for my monitor
and my son's TV screen. I had somme papers that come in a package that were
called Sightsavers. You just use them dry. Sounds weird I know, but they
cleaned the TV screen. I haven't seen them in a long time though.

Actually according to OCR with a Smile, it is actually fine to use windex,
granted your scanner glass is actually glass. You apply the windex to a
soft lint free cloth, and then wipe it all off making sure you don't touch
the rulers along the sides.
It also strongly discourages paper towels, as these are scratchy, but cotton
or fine cloth, like those used by photographers to clean their lenses. The
author also discourages, the use of rubbing, but more of a blotting type
method, so to not grind the dirt and other junk into the glass.
And the cloths are designed to work on all glass surfaces, fine as well as
normal. smile.
Oh, and of course the first thing the book recommends, is that you look at
your manual for manufacturers recommendations for cleaning, as again, some
of that scanner glass is not really glass.
