You mention in your post the cleaning mixture you used, can you clarify whether you acquired the raw materials and mixed it up yourself or if you were able to source the cleaning mixture already mixed.

Hi Trev

I got it from OPT in kit form back in 2004'ish but it is still available exactly as I purchsed:

http://www.optcorp.com/product.aspx?pid=1952

Was a good bargain when we were at AU$1 = US$0.90c+ but now it'd be about AU$90 delivered I guess? Still an excellent product and lasts a long time, I've used it to clean most of my optical components and some a few times and there is still plenty left
