Comments about Purosol Optical Cleaner - 4 oz:
Pricey, which is the only reason I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars. Actually, 4 oz is quite a lot, given how it is used, which is sparingly. Use is for lenses and filters. I suggest buying a small container for your camera bag and getting the larger container to save cost.

I have used a number of lens cleaners over the years and this one is one of the best I've tried. It works well and leaves the glass streak-free without requiring a lot of work to get results.

I use it for cleaning lenses and my glasses.
Easy to use spray bottle. While easy it may spray more than a dropper type dispenser and waste some product. Even given that 40z will last a long, long time.

I use this on my most valued optics including an Astro-Physics refractor that I had to wait 9 years for! Very effective in removing pollen and other nasties found here in the Southern end of the USA. Best results by placing it on a disposal lint free tissue in lieu of direct spray application.

Comments about Purosol Optical Cleaner - 4 oz:
I have only tried it once so far but worked perfectly. It removed a few water spots on the lens with no problem and seemed to do it faster then other products I have tried.
I am sure that the manufacturer has heard this complaint often about the spray function. While this is great for cleaning large surfaces I can not afford to clean windows, tv's etc with this product.
I suggest either offering a dropper type version as well or including one of those 'one drop at a time' tops in the package as an optional way to dispense the product.
Also, I am not sure if the quantity is over the USA carry on liquids limit for air travel.

I use this on Takahashi telescope, Celestron telescope, Newtonian mirrors, Astro-Physics diagonal, OMI mirror, Pentax and Zeiss Abbee Orthoscopic eyepieces. It is recommended by Astro-Physics on their high end refractors. A bit pricey but a bottle lasts a couple of years. Does not absorb moisture out of the air which can lead to streaking in humid environments (with alcohol or acetone). Does not dissolve paint or plastic. I find it much better than the standard mix of soapy water and alcohol. I use it with kimwipes and a Giotto air blower.

I've been cleaning camera lenses for 40 years, and this is the best liquid I've come across. In one week I cleaned my Canon 600mm IS, my laptop screen, my desktop screen, a dirty DVD, and my flat panel TV, all with excellent results. The liquid comes out in a very fine, even, controllable mist that seems to pick up all oily residue in one pass. I'm very pleased with it and will continue to use it.

I started off years ago using Purosol Plasma for cleaning all of my flat panel screens at home. It worked so well that I ordered this product two years ago and haven't been dissapointed. One squirt will clean my lens perfectly EVERY time.[...]

THis is by far the best lens cleaner I have ever used. The spray is fine and doesn't saturate lenses, like the Nikon brand. The fine mist allows you to use less cleaner, making the product last longer. Wipes off easy and cleans like no other. Works great on lenses and filters.

What can you say about glasses cleaner, except, though expensive, this product is the best I've used in my many, many years of cleaning glasses.

You might think all cleaning solutions are the same, but this will convince you otherwise. Sure, it's expensive, but I have had very good luck cleaning even stubborn smudges from lenses and filters with this.

Comments about Purosol Optical Cleaner - 4 oz:
I had a relatively expensive big screen DLP TV. Unfortunately, after a period of time, dust and other debris can get into the optical path and reduce the “snap” of a great looking big screen. I wanted to clean as much of the light path as possible, which includes the lens and the big mirror. After researching the situation, most wise techs advise against the newbie cleaning something as delicate as a large first surface mirror. So it was with some intrepidation that I found and used this product and its accompanying micro-fiber cloth. I paid attention to how I applied and wiped off this product, but the results were impressive. Spotless and no steaks with a simple, careful cloth turning. It did what it said it would do.
