Can you tell me how to clean my Lumicon filter?

Cleaning the Lumicon Filter

With repeated use, your Lumicon filter will need to undergo cleaning to keep it optimal for viewing.

1. Start by cleaning your hands free of any dirt and debris.
2. Use compressed air to remove excess dirt or dust off of your Lumicon filter.
3. Use isopropyl alcohol or a lens cleaning solution and a cotton swab to clean your Lumicon filter.
4. Move the cotton swab along the Lumicon filter in a twisting fashion, using a part of the cotton swab only once.
5. Continue the process with a new swab until your Lumicon filter is clean and streak free.
