I was wondering how and what is best suited to clean the lenses on an expensive pair of binoculars, particularly Vortex Viper Binoculars. Sure I have the instructions that came with it, really does not mention more than the obvious, like anything abrasive, ie; paper towels or similar. I realize there can be coatings and these are polished etc. There is a small cloth that came with them, and I assume if I follow what they say, it should be fine, but I assume someone here probably knows a lot more about these than I.
How to you clean your fine or expensive optics and what to you use? What do you NOT use LOL !
What is the deal with those alcohol lense papers in foil packs, what are these typically for?
I have a couple of silk like lense clothes that I used for stone ground glass sunglasses and my not so expensive rifle scope, but I do not want to screw up these bino's, buy they are sharp, a real treat to have a pair of these when hunting or just observing from from any viewing area where you can see miles in the distance.
