Default 2013 Ford Mustang GT Navigation Sreen haze clouding issue

As stated in the title, there is a haze, or film over my navigation screen with fingerprint marks. It doesn't wipe down. Has anyone had this issue, or know how to resolve it?

someone try to use windex or a solvent based cleaner to clean the screen before? Windex with ammonia is known to attack plastic and plastic film (thus you never want to use it on plastic based materials.

Best you can try is a LCD safe plastic cleaning agent.

You know, I'm not sure how it happened. When I bought the car it was already like that. And I'm not sure if I need to disassemble it and try to clean the screen inside and out or if something else will work. Or worst case maybe it need replacing.

seems like whomever cleaned it for resale didn't realize that certain chemicals can haze the plastic coating. It sure looks like the previous owner hit those 4 spots A LOT with their fingertips.
