NOOOOO! Get either ROR lens cleaning fluid (available at Looking Glass) and a very soft cleaning cloth, follow directions carefully. Another good (and perhaps even better) cleaning fluid can be found here: http://www.clearsightusa.com/ The Clearsight product is easier to use and does a great job, as does ROR.
The Lens Pen is also a worthwhile tool for getting rid of stubborn junk on a lens, at least according to some list members. I have one but not yet tried it. Shel > [Original Message] > From: Peter J.
