Re: Objective cleaning. A Zeiss person once told me to use:

Windex (or other clear glass cleaner) 50%
70% alcohol 50%

It always worked well for me.

       At the moment I'm still using ether to clean my microscope objectives. For health and safety I'd like to move away to some other cleaning agent. What's everyone else using?
