try, try and try as I might, the phase one 'cleaning kit' (part A&B) kit just doesn't work for me!
I am always left with some streaks and dot/dashes on the sensor surface.
I've also tried e-wipes..slightly better, but still some streaks.

anybody perfected their cleaning routine?
only really an issue over f/8.. but still!

Don't use the A part, just use the B. Rocket Blower and then just the B. Only use the A part if it is really really dirty. Try it.

A is soap and water or close to it.
It leaves all sorts of streaks.
b is alcohol.
Use only b unless you have a spot that totally resists b, then try a, but with trepidation.
After using a do not be surprised that you may have to use b 8-10 times to clean it up.
Usually I just use eclipse.

yup -- I just trieded eclipse with a left over 'sensor wipe' (too small) but it worked very well.

oddly, my rocket blower bulb is rotted! left black marks all over my hand.

thanks
