Can I use Windex and a paper towel? Or will that ruin it?

Just use a little water, put it on a clean cloth (don't spray anything onto an LCD) and wipe it down a little at a time. Be sure to dry it as you go.
I use my microfiber cloth, but anything that isn't incredibly abrasive will work.

What happens if you use 99 percent alcohol because when i use 99 percent it was pretty clean but i wonder if it damages the screen...

It it doesn't then i would recommend this : O

Isopropyl Alcohol (it's not 99%, you can't buy that in stores) can be used, though I'd probably recommend that it be diluted with water to at least 1:1. I just said to use water because it's a simpler answer, harder to mess things up, I guess.

I bought an LCD Cleaner. It was like $5.
Contains a brush to remove thick shit off your screen.
Then a special spray. And then a Micro Fibre Cloth.
I heard if your going to do it your self, you mix water with a dot of alcahol or something.

Edit: I just remembered when I got this 22" monitor. My little cousin came over and I had a texta next to my PC to write on burned discs. I left him to play some disney game lol. I came back and he drew all over my monitor.
I was like WTFWTFWTFWTFWTFWTFWTF!?!?!?!?!?!?
Then his mum came and was like use Nail polish.
I used nail polish and it removed it and i was like feeeewwww.
Then I researched the internetz and discovered that the chemical in Nail polish destroys monitors so i was like WTFWTFWTFWTFWTF!?!?!?!?!?!?
Luckily mine is working perfectly.
It's an Acer X223W.

Sorry I just came back from work so I am really crazy now.

There are monitor wipes, consider on getting that if your that concern if anything else will damage it.

If by Eye Glass Cleaner you mean Micro Fiber Cloth, then yes.

LCD panel is more or less an LCD panel. Use a soft, clean cloth and water. Put water on the cloth (not too much at a time), never spray anything on the screen itself, and dry the panel as you go.
