B+W UV filter cleaning

[blacksmith]

Is there any tutorial on this? Just because of my carelessness, I touched the filter with my finger ... left a small finger print on it

Just use a lens cleaning cloth or those that came with your spectacles.

B+W filters are a breeze to clean, even fingerprints are no match.

Amen to that.

i find Hoya filters really hard to clean, pretty annoying

Still cheaper as compared to B+W.

I won't do that for my $10 filter as they cannot take it. Only do it to the expensive ones. That is the reason why they are expensive. You can abuse! Just like L lenses....you can abuse it an still know that it will work.

Buy a Lenspen to clean it.

I just use the microfiber cloth and clean when available, else just tissue paper or clothing. My eyes and pictures can't tell the damages done...if there are any

I personally don't recommend the lenspen as it'll leave residues after a while.

I use the Kinetronic cleaning kit, which has a brush, an alcohol based cleaning fluid, and a microfibre cloth. So far so good.

You just take a deep breathe... and do a wet wet HAAH HAAAHHHH onto the lens. Then use Kleenex wipe it clean.

Oh pleeease... just spit on it and wipe it off with your sleeves! C'mon

Been using my Lenspen for over a year already. Still no signs of residue. How long is "after awhile"?
