(MA-22) Anti-Fog Treatment Kit
Back in the 2008 we worked on a formula to apply to all CCD and CMOS sensors to clean and treat them with an anti-fog coating to reduce fog forming on the sensor. We have been using this formula since 2010 on just about all the optical surfaces on our cameras with a proven track record. The same formula has now been finalized and made available commercially to everyone who wishes to have the Anti-Fog Treatment Kit from MallinCam. The dry solution can be applied on the optical window of all astronomical cameras, eyepieces, and even on the corrector plate of SCT telescopes. The formula is non-toxic and safe for the environment, and can be applied to most optical surfaces with ease. We've included an air bulb to remove stubborn dust particles that produce "Dust Bunnies" from your astronomical cameras and other optics.
A sealed Ziploc bag comes with the kit to keep the Anti-Fog Cloth safe and free of dust.
