Cleaning the Scan Window

Post by TimBeach »

Whats the best solution for cleaning the scan window of an SS2?

I mean, which cleaning liquid (assuming you should use one!), and cloth?

The scanner has been rained on one too many times!

Suggestions most welcome!

Hi Tim,
As Phil describes above, Techspray do offer an excellent range of cleaning products and we certainly have been happy with the Isopropyl Alcohol wipes.
I`m not sure, but I think Leica do supply a cleaning solution pack for their laser scanners....I will give Milton Keynes a call tomorrow and find out for sure, and post the results here.
I dont know if any other laser scanner manufacturers offer such packs, but it would be interesting to know.

Best regards,
