Hi Charles, For regular cleaning I use a blower brush to remove dust and
floaties off the mirror. If there is something stubborn there that bothers
me I wipe it over using an anti-static lens cloth, taking care not to put a
finger on it. I have used this method to clean mirrors and prisms for years
without a problem. I've seen others who attack dirty mirrors much more
vigorously and concluded that they are probably not as delicate as commonly
preached (although I'm still very careful).
