Subject: [Leica] Nathan's permanent dust

The stuff for the sensor is Eclipse fluid, a pretty pure alcohol. I tend to 
save the internal alcohol until afterwards...

It IS scary the first time, but when you realise just how easy and quick the 
process is the fear soon goes.

Do you use some kind of spirits?

I mean ... to get over the fear factor, not to waste on the sensor.

(I have some blue sky stuff too).
