QHY8 (the square model) has a thick piece of glass directly on the CCD. I've cleaned it in the past with Qtips. No issues whatsoever. I don't know about the new QHY8s , like the pros or cylindrical 10,11,12 etc...
Thanks - I was thinking of using one of these products:

but some have solvents and are not just air.

It is difficult to decide.
I have left my QHY9m well alone for now.
