[pct-l] Tip for the trail

[James F. Miller]

I bought some Julbo Sunglasses with custom lenses from Opticus.com
 
They recommend using a non-ammonia based cleaner such as 409 for a deep cleaning. Spray it on, rinse after a few seconds with clean water and dab dry with a lotion free kleenex
 
Mild soap and water does not do a deep cleaning according to Opticus.
 
I really like the lenses they did for me. Presciption, small bifocal for reading, tinted for snow and desert travel and photochromatic from 50% to 85% or something like that
