Eclipse Optic Cleaning System
For CCD & CMOS
ECLIPSE lens cleaner is the highest purity lens cleaner available, containing less than 5 parts per million (ppm) of contamination (the whitish residue left after evaporation) It dries as quickly as it can be applied leaving absolutely no residue, making it the only recommended cleaner for CCD and CMOS sensor cleaning when used with Sensor Swabs. When used with PEC*PAD photo wipes, Eclipse is also safe and ideal for lens and filter cleaning.
For lenses & other optics
When used with PEC*PAD photo wipes, it is possible to clean only the portion of lens which is dirty eliminating "hazy swirls". Dispense several drops onto a clean, folded PEC*PAD and lightly wipe surface in a single direction. Refold pad to expose a clean side and re-wipe as necessary. Other lens tissues may not work as well, and some experimentation may be required. Each box contains a 59 ml. (2 fl. oz.) bottle with dropper applicator.
Traveling by air with ECLIPSE :
Technically, the regulations allow some exemptions for small amounts - usually ½ ounce or less (about 7 ½ mL) . The items referred to in the regulations are for such things as small butane lighters, and some medical items.
Strictly speaking the regulations seem to prohibit things like cleaning solvents, especially in volumes greater than the allowable ½ ounce. In many cases, I have been allowed to carry bottles of either product with no problem, but I have heard from many photographers who had these items removed from their carry-on.
Putting these materials in your checked luggage may put you at risk for violating the law, and the penalties are quite stiff – $250,000 !
