Cleaning lenses etc

3 posts
  1. Hi guys

    What should I use to clean my port/glass on my WP-DC34 housing? Just a soft microfibre thing and some hot breath?

    Is it the same thing for the lens on my G11?

  2. Absolutely NO hot breath or other liquids on the inside or the lens before the dive as this will lead to fogging.

    A good microfiber towel for reading glasses or lenses should be enough to clean a lens/port.

    If not, use some lens cleaning solution and lens paper to get rid of the dirt and use the microfibre

    afterwards to polish the glass.

  3. Do NOT use MEK, Methyl hydrate, rubbing alcohol, scotch, camp stove fuel, or any other organic based cleaner other than those labled safe for plastic lens.I learned this the hard way.

     

    And Organic does not mean, from natural sources, it means, carbon based, like gasoline!
