It is suitable for objective lenses, eyepieces, and eyeglasses. Please keep the cloth clean, as dirt can damage the lens surface. If the cloth is dirty, you can wash it in lukewarm soapy water and let it air dry. Please use it only for cleaning glass surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.2 CLEANING<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We ensure all elements and surfaces are very easy to clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cleaning the optics: To ensure the long-lasting optical brilliance of your product, you should keep the glass surfaces free from dirt, oil, and grease. First brush off any larger particles of dirt using an optical lens brush. Then breathe gently on the lens and polish it with the cleaning cloth to remove any remaining dirt. If it is very dirty (e.g. with sand), the twist-in eyecup can be completely unscrewed, making it very easy to clean.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"398\" height=\"232\" src=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Swarowski81-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5702060\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.3 USING INSECT REPELLENTS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The active agent DEET (insect repellent) may \u2013 depending on the concentration \u2013 damage both synthetic materials and varnished surfaces. In particular, in cases where the product is newly applied and still damp on skin or hands which then come into contact with the surface.<br>As an alternative, insect repellents based on ICARIDIN can be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.4 STORAGE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep your product in its bag in a well-ventilated place. If the product is wet, it must be dried first. In tropical areas or areas with high humidity, it is best to store it in an airtight container with a moistureabsorbing agent (e.g. silica gel).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8.
