Hi,
After some use my eyepieces needed cleaning - especially a 10mm Plossl which was _really_ dirty and was even showing halo around Mars. So, I decided to clean the eyepieces, read how to do it, got cleaning fluid from Orion, set a clean table and prepared a box of Q-tips. The result: one clean barlow, and two of three clean eyepieces. The third eyepiece - the same 10mm Plossl, - got a bad case of fogging between elements. Too much cleaning fluid, I guess... :-( And, no, I didn't drop cleaning fluid on the eyepiece itself. Do you think I can do something? I would like to believe if I leave it alone for a day or two the internal fog will evaporate, eventually. Or I should just throw it in the bin? :-( Any ideas? - Alex |
