RALFFERS 0 #1 September 24, 2010 Can anyone tell me if cleaning your glasses with a lens wipe - but one that contains alcohol is ok to use for cleaning glasses that have a anti reflective coating on them?

theonlyski 8 #4 September 24, 2010 Generally speaking, I run my glasses under cold water to get the big stuff off, then use a microfiber towel (or one of those socks that comes with glasses like my gatorz, oakleys and liquids) That usually gets rid of everything pretty well... I try to stay away from the tech wipes."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #6 September 24, 2010 You might not ruin your glasses with one alcoholic wipe, but I wouldn't make a habit of it. You're not supposed to use anything like your shirt either. Wal-Mart sells a cheap package that includes some spray and a wipe that comes in quite handy for me.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whatthehell 0 #7 September 24, 2010 I used to work as a tech is an optical lab making lenses and was taught that the best way to clean them was to run them under the tap, gently rub dawn dish washing detergent on them with your fingers, rinse, and dry them with a cotton cloth that has not had fabric softener on it. Don't use paper towels or cleanex. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
