What do you guys use or do to clean your Eotech lenses. I know the manual instructs to not use dry cotton. A slightly moistened cotton cloth seems to leave streaks.

I use a Leupold LensPen on mine. It works great--takes away fingerprints, smudges, and doesn't leave streaks. It's easy to maneuver around the window and get along the edges as well.

I used a little bit of Windex on a q-tip. I know someone's gonna jump in and say that's a no-no....but it worked.

I use %100 cotton cloths with water most of the time. If it gets real dirty then first use a camera lens cleaner / cloth and finish it off with water and %100 cotton cloth on my 551 and 552 EOTech sights. Basically I use that method with a good strong light to finish it all until I put my scopecoats on to protect them.
