VisibleDust Ultra MXD-100 Green Vswab for Medium Format 30-33 mm (12 Pack)

1. Refer to your camera’s manual on how to expose the sensor
2. Use Arctic Butterfly^® Sensor Brush^® or Zeeion^® blower to remove any dry contaminants from the sensor surface
3. Discard swab wrapping
4. Add 3-4 drops of VDust Plus™, Sensor Clean™ or Smear Away™ to edge of swab head
5. Wait to allow for even saturation of the swab. Do not allow the swab to dry out
6. Insert swab width according to the width of the sensor then rotate 1/4 turn inside chamber
7. Wipe across the sensor with gentle pressure in one pass
8. Allow the sensor to dry completely
9. Release the camera shutter
10. Proceed with checking the image
11. Repeat if necessary

Visibledust sensor cleaning solutions and swabs are calibrated to work together to produce optimal and safe results. Please DO NOT USE alternative solutions with our swab. A simple grain of quartz that is found in cheaper solutions are enough to produce an expensive scratch on the low pass filter. Our solutions are manufactured to the highest standard of quality that is practiced in pharmaceutical industries.

Visibledust solutions are calibrated for NORMAL evaporative rates:

1. to keep the swab moist at all time to reduce the risk of scratch
2. to increase the cleaning power, less swabbing more economical
3. to reduce friction by being moist all time during swabbing

The potential risk of FAST evaporative solutions used as sensor cleaning are the following:

1. an increase in the risk of damage and stress to sensor coating by using a premature dry swab
2. a great reduction in cleaning power by shortening the contact time between contaminants and solution due to the increased evaporation rate of the solution
3. increase in friction by using a premature drying swab, resulting in static charge build-up leading to an even greater dust accumulation on the sensor

Our cleaning liquids are intended to be placed on the swab first, so the concern for liquid seeping through the sensor is not valid or accurate. On the other hand, the disadvantages of a generic brand or FAST evaporative liquid used for sensor cleaning may in fact may cause damage to the sensor by requiring repeat swabbing and is not recommended.
