There isn't much you can do, whatever you used got under/ate away the protective layer on the monitor. You can try to replace the panel yourself, but it's not easy, cheap, or safe since the inverter boards they use are high voltage electronics. Your best bet is just to write it off at this point.

If you are really determined there are several third party companies on the web you can contact, but it would only cost you about $150 less than your current estimate.

If you do have a laptop, those links are the way to go.

If you have a desktop LCD I'd say just scrap it and buy a new one.

and for the future these guys make some darn good LCD wipes: http://www.amazon.com/Hoodman-Hoodwipes-Cleaning-Digital-Screens/dp/B0009PAU7Y

Good Luck
