tmlee asked:
What can I buy from the local pharmacy to clean my lenses with ?
What do I ask for ? Is methylated spirit a 'no-no' ? Why ?
---------------------------------
Just use facial tissues and window cleaning solution . (In the US,
"Windex")
Just be sure to apply the cleaning solution to the tissue first. Don't
pour liquid on the lens and allow it to run inside. I don't know what's
in it apart from water but do know that it contains a small amount of
ammonia.
I saw this tip in Thomas Tomosy's books on camera repair. Works very
well and I have never been tempted to use anything else since I started
using Windex. I used to use Kodak lens cleaner but it didn't work very
well and I could never get a streak free cleaning. Windex is great.
