The kit has the sticky lolly pop, and a pad that is used to clean the sticky part.
You clean the sticky part by pressing it onto an unused portion of the pad, then press the sticky bit onto the sensor, then press it onto the pad again. Rinse, lather & repeat until the whole sensor has been done. Also check out this link for a video of someone cleaning their Nikon's sensor: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXLDwbR3V54> This person looks to be using a little more pressure than is actually necessary. And it only took me 6 "presses" to clean my sensor.
