And the visible dust swabs and their oil or dust fluid..... Should've gotten the Eclipse stuff instead? Frank Filippone red735i at earthlink.net Today I repeated the dry clean folowed by a wet clean with the Eclipse type 3 (size) swab and their fluid. They no longer consider the E2 fluid necessary for tin oxide sensors and recommend their standard fluid for every sensor. A single pass in each direction completely removed every trace of the streaks and I am a happy camper. I believe that the streaks I had were either traces of oil, possibly from the swab touching the surrounds of the sensor (shutter lubricant??), drying marks from the fluids used (qty?) or a combination of both.
