Hey all,

Noticed a few spots on my sensor this week that need to go. Did the normal rainforest search and naturally got every result imaginable, most unwanted.

My question is, what have you guys bought before and been happy with? There's so many options even from the same brands, it's just a mess to decide.

Thanks
 
Step 1 - rocket blower

If it's still there, wet clean time.

Make sure you have

1 - correct swab size for the sensor, APSC size stick for FF sensor is not a good time, nor is the other way round.
2 - now, blank swabs with the cleaning paper and fluid. Or you can get pre-made swaps that are dry and apply fluid yourself. If you do that, drop it under the edge and let capillary reaction pull the fluid up. The latter is much easier tbh as wrapping the paper round and taping it up to great a neat straight edge is not easy.
