Glasses cleaning spray has become a daily cleaning tool for many glasses wearers. Proper use of it can keep the lenses clear and extend the life of glasses. However, many people have some misunderstandings during use, which may affect the cleaning effect or even damage the lenses. This article will introduce 5 common usage misunderstandings to help you better understand how to use glasses cleaning spray correctly.
Myth 1: Will it be cleaner if you spray it directly on the lens?
Many people are used to spraying the cleaning spray directly on the lens, thinking that this is more efficient. In fact, spraying directly on the lens may cause liquid to penetrate the edge of the lens, especially for coated lenses, which may damage the coating. A better way is to spray the spray on the cleaning cloth first, and then gently wipe the lens to avoid liquid residue.
Myth 2: Just let it dry naturally after spraying?
Some people think that after spraying the cleaner, just wait for it to dry naturally. But this practice is likely to leave chemical residues or water marks on the lens. Wipe it with a special cleaning cloth in time after spraying, which can not only ensure the cleaning effect, but also avoid foggy residue affecting the clear vision.
Myth 3: Can I choose any type of spray at will?
There are various types of glasses cleaning sprays on the market, but not all products are suitable for all lenses. Especially for blue light protection and polarized lenses, you need to avoid using alcohol-containing cleaners to avoid damaging the lenses. Before purchasing, you should read the ingredient instructions carefully and choose a spray that is suitable for the lens material.
Myth 4: Can spray replace all cleaning tools?
Glasses cleaning spray is suitable for daily cleaning, but it cannot replace all cleaning methods. For lenses with heavy oil stains or small impurities on the edge of the frame, regular ultrasonic cleaning or warm water cleaning is more effective. Sprays can clean quickly, but regular deep cleaning helps to fully maintain glasses.
Myth 5: Can any cloth be used to wipe glasses?
In the absence of a cleaning cloth, many people will wipe their glasses with paper towels or corners of clothes. However, these cloths may contain fine fibers that can easily scratch the lenses. It is best to use a dedicated microfiber cleaning cloth, which can protect the lenses and effectively remove dirt.
