Thanks


Having had a set of COATED lenses about a year now, I understand what
you are up against. Any of the "old" ways of cleaning non-COATED
glasses just do not get the job done. Body oil just does not come off.
I don't know a DIY formula, what works best for me is Walgreen's or
CVS's little spray bottle of cleaner made for COATED glasses, and a
MICROFIBER cloth. That's why the doc's office gave me 2 cloths when I
got the glasses. Again, anything else just does not work on COATED
lenses. My mgr at work had same problem with his new lenses a few
months ago. YMMV

But how do you clean the microfiber cloth? And yes, this is a serious
question- whenever I run one through the washer, it self-destructs.

I marvel at all the microfiber crap in the cleaning products section at
the store - wondering how I get along without it. Buying them seems to
me much like burning a stack of dollar bills.
