Eyepiece Cleaning

Just though that a thread in the Beginner Forum on cleaning eyepieces would be very handy for all concerned.

I currently use a blower brush, isopropanol, cotton buds and lens tissues.

I remove any grit with the blower brush, then lightly moisten a new and clean cotton bud with isopropanol and wipe the lense in a spiral motion outwards from the centre. Then use the dry end to wipe off the isopropanol off before it evaporates to remove any grease. Then check it under good light and use a clean lense tissue if it needs any further cleaning.

How do you all clean your little pieces of glass and metal?
