RE: Re[2]: Multicoated filter on a single-coated lens

[Lewis, Gerald]

No, lint is not damaging but darned aggrevating when dusted across the
surface of your lens.  If you don't use one of the newer fabric lens
cleaning cloths an old cotton tee shirt that has been washed until it is
very soft is perfect for cleaning a lens along with a good lens cleaning
solution...AFTER... using a can of compressed air or a gentle brushing with
a fine camel hair brush to knock off the big chunks before rubbing them into
the coating.

Hi,

<<The advice used to be given to use only lint-free cloth. I don't know how
to tell whether something contains lint or not, so assuming that lint is
damaging I try to use only stuff that is specifically intended for lens
cleaning.>>
