cleaning scope lenses

[cyclonebri1 8]

OK the kit I have is Lenspen Hunter Pro Kit. Cleans up my scopes, bins and laser rangefinder very well indeed

 

In reality all you need is one lenspen itself, save yourself a bit of money. I only use the small lenspen for the laser glass on my rangefinder, I've never used the solution or the little cloth on anything.

 

Just remember about the grit/sand.

cheers for that mate much appreciated,very helpful as always

yeah i forgot about the grit and sand , i'll never forget about it again though b@stard scratches

 

Get a blower brush from the camera shop, only a couple of quids. Has a rubber bulb and jet nozzle to blow grit/crap out of the lens, and the other end is a soft sable brush, like a make up brush. No scratching

I learned the hard way too, with a pair of specs, fecked them up good and proper

 

 

Better to learn on specs than binos/scopes!!

Various methods available as already said, cloths, brushes, fluids etc, if in any doubt any decent camera shop will supply plenty of options..try and avoid the T Shirt approach

Smasher.

 

I use "spectacle cleaning cloths" bought from Lidl! They clean my riflescopes, laser rangefinder, binos without any probs.

 

Hope this helps.
