[QUOTE="absolut_beethoven, post: 3177429, member: 107482"] ROR ingredients from the MDS posted on their web site: Ammonia 26° = 0.775% Sodium Chloride = 0.830% Isopropyl Alcohol = 4.266% Liquid Soap = 9.011% Distilled Water = 85.118% I have used The ROR cleaner extensively and have been very pleased with the streak/residual free results. The premoistened Zeiss cleaning cloths also do an outstanding job on most oils and grimes, but couldn't help when one of my kids left a greasy pizza print on the anti-glare screen of our TV. Fortunately ROR easily removed it with only a few wipes. I have yet to find any oil, grease or grime that either of these two couldn't remove effectively. Note that both of the above will leave slight streaking when the cloths are very moist. Fortunately they evaporate quickly and if you continue to rub in light circles until it's almost dry will leave the cleaned surface streak and blemish free. I don't trust the lens pens not because they don't work. I don't use them because the risk is too high that I may have missed a tiny piece of grit which the lens pen will then rub onto the AR coating and probably scratch it. Long before Modern Photography folded, Herbert Keppler recommended the Microdear microfiber cleaning cloths as the thickest, softest and most absorbent available. I have close to 100 different brands on hand, and this is still the best one to date. I buy mine from Amazon - see the link below - wash it in hot water without any fabric softeners. Do not dry it in the dryer, it's better to hang it up to dry after squeezing as much water out of it as possible.
