Cleaning Prints

I have had a bunch of prints made and mounted them on foam backing and hung them with Velcro in my office cubicle. Along the way, there have been a lot of fingerprints. How do I clean photographic prints to remove fingerprints and other dirty stains?

Please swing on by and check out my Gallery .
There is no easy way to clean your prints other than taking them to a conservator. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself. Probably cheaper to redo the prints;-)

You could use a lint-free cloth like these to gently wipe the surface to diminish the visible evidence of the fingerprints.

One man sees things and says "why?" - but I dream things that never were and I say "why not?"
I was finally able to obtain an unusual lint free cloth whose purpose is to clean LCD's. It has a terry cloth like surface and is lint free. It worked like charm and got everything off. Unfortunately, I don't have a source for getting one (I got mine as a freebie at a trade show). Thanks to all who took the time to answer. I'll be using gloves from now on!!
