Lens cleaner recommendation
Anhydrous ethanol is a common cleaner in the optical parts industry and is easily volatile. Clean all optical parts with anhydrous alcohol is the best choice.
Thunderlaser do not suggest that clean the lens with isopropyl alcohol(IPA).
We got feedbacks that the coating of lens would be damaged by IPA.
